* Sometimes, doctors doing surgery can get things catastrophically wrong, especially if you're not watching them and they [[MushroomSamba pop some recreational drugs]] before [[BackAlleyDoctor opening up the patient.]] There's something equally horrifying and hilarious about seeing a colonist dying on the table and their prosthetic leg installed where their heart or head is supposed to be.

* The Metalhorrors from the ''Anomaly'' DLC are horribly paranoia inducing monsters, and learning there's an infection of them in your colony heralds at least several days of frantic guesswork about who may or may not be compromised and leading to a fight that may kill half your colonists... most of the time. If a player who's already done that song and dance at least once before does a Void Provocation ritual and a creepy joiner walks onto the map a few hours later, they might as well be holding up a sign reading "I AM INFECTED." After that it's simply a matter of keeping them from doing vital work like doctoring or cooking and waiting for the first grey flesh sample to show, at which point you can immediately shove the infected joiner into a cell and send your best Warden to interrogate them until the Metalhorror shows itself. With a bit of luck, no one else will even be infected, turning an event that's usually nerve wracking into something hilariously straightforward.

Actually, I'm going to remove this one since the sub is very NSFW due to the horrific stuff it discusses.


* [[https://www.reddit.com/r/ShitRimworldSays/ /r/ShitRimworldSays]] is a [[WebSite/{{Reddit}} subreddit]] devoted to out of context statements by the Rimworld fandom used for pure BlackComedy. Quite often they are just as equally terrible and funny even with context.
->''"The child was born, immediately went to equip marine armor and then smoke a joint. I guess being a fetus didn't provide much recreation."''

* With ''Biotech'' installed, one way for children to improve their skills is through lessons given by older pawns. These lessons cover a random skill the teacher is good at, which regularly results in 3-year-olds being lectured on topics like astronavigation, social engineering and seduction, unarmed melee techniques, or how to properly aim and maintain a minigun or rocket launcher. Even better, it actually works, with the kid usually gaining at least one level in the corresponding skill per lesson.

* The descriptions for art pieces can be very bizarre, given their randomly generated nature. Who wouldn't want to have a sculpture of two anteaters fighting surrounded by twelve dentists?

* In the Royalty DLC, the quest to join the Empire involves saving a fleeing noble from a manhunting animal. Said animal is small and otherwise non-threatening, like a chinchilla or a squirrel. Even better, if the game is set to Peaceful difficulty, the "manhunter" is a normal, non-hostile variety. The letter announcing its arrival even acknowledges this.
