Nethack humor

Since this dynasty is developing a Nethack theme, we should give anyone not familliar with it some kind of background.

To kick this off, some methods of death may seem dumb.  However, a few stand out because of the sheer degree of stupidity they imply.  Some examples:

1)“Zapped himself with a spell”
2)“Killed by a scroll of genocide”
and my personal favorite:
3)“Killed by kicking a wall”

Don’t forget such incredible lapses in judgment as “Eating Death’s corpse” or “Teleporting to Dungeon level negative one, and falling to death”

And my personal favorite until I get that intrinsic:

“You fall in a pit. The spikes are posioned. The poison is deadly.”

Hmm…

AG:I was referring to the tombstone inscriptions.  Also good is killing yourself by throwing something at the ceiling (Killed by a Falling Object).

There is a chickatrice corpse here; eat it?y
Thise chickatrice corpse tastes terrible!
You turn to stone.
