Did I mention that I bend metal with my mind?!

...using my mind to control my hands and my pliers, of course...  It's jewelry... <.<

I can see this defense being attempted in court after girlinhat completes that medieval style suit of armour + sword and goes on a tantrum at the badger exhibit in the local zoo.

The easiest cure for bedroom miasma is probably a kickass dining room with tables and chairs, and bedrooms with neither table nor chair.
Actually no, from what I observe some dwarves just like bringing food into their bedrooms as collectable items. Others drag cloaks or socks into their rooms, these dwarves decide food items is their thing. It might have to do with backpacks - when soldiers have to take off backpacks for whatever reason and the food inside drops, it's still in their ownership. If they then get idle time then they'll clean up the food they now own... by shoving it in their room.

Give them a refridgerator (box, chest or bag) in their room and there won't be any miasma.

Congrats, Psieye. This is the first time I've seen a derailed thread get put back on the rails.

hm.... yeah, deactivating soldiers could indeed cause it, regardless of normal sleeping arrangements.  I've yet to see food-based miasma, but all bedrooms in my fort have a chest and cabinet, and I've yet to find soldiers disrobing -- whatever I did with uniforms must be working well enough.

Maybe I just don't have any backpacks?

I should inspect the coffers belonging to military dwarves for leftovers...

I can say that merely having a rad dining room won't always prevent dwarves from eating in the silliest places.  I had an absolutely huge royal dining hall in the centre of my fort, but would consistently see "complained about the lack of tables/chairs" thought for dwarves.  I'd follow some around, and notice sometimes a dwarf up near the top of the fort would suddenly decide to eat... at the worker's camp mess hall just above the magma sea, 108 z-levels below.  He literally had to walk past the mostly vacant royal dining hall to get there.  Not sure if this behaviour would contribute to miasma, though.

If they desire to sleep in filth, let them.  I am busy overseeing the importing and construction of a solid gold block phallus on my front lawn.  I cannot be bothered to clean their bedrooms like some mother of 5 year olds.  The phallus will do that.  Once it's been fitted with a magma ejaculator.  It'll all be clean then...

...

Does she terrify anyone else?

You'll get used to it. The first suggestion is always mass murder. After that, solid gold phalluses fail to shock.
Oh my Gog Vester's back!

Most of you newbies may not know her but she's probably one of the best artists on the forums.

OT: Fuck yes giant phalluses scare me, especially if they're ejaculating magma. That would hurt. That would hurt everyone.

I am not. :P There's probably at least a dozen better artists on here (assuming Fault's still around).

The avatar looks familiar (not just around the forums but the art style) which I can't quite place, but have been historically too lazy to ask about.  I've also historically been alive and not buried in magma.  Let's not break tradition.

Maybe I'm just jaded, but a giant, magma-ejaculating gold phallus just seems like something the ancient Greeks would do if they had access to DF.  In fact, there would probably be one outside every fortress for good luck.

Faults still here, but in my mind it's less a definitive skill level and more like tiers. You and Fault and Darkerdark are all on the same tier.

Somewhere along the way this innocent thread about cheese went horribly, horribly wrong.

I'd say it's par for the course. Did you see that crundle thread? That one started out wrong.
