This is kind of a "spinoff" of the screenshots topic, but with a common theme. It features the adventures of a Space Marine called Private YASD who just can't seem to stop killing himself through bad luck and stupidity (mostly stupidity).
Hopefully we can read the stories of Private YASD, have a laugh, and remember some of our own stupid mistakes.
For those of you who are wondering, yes, I did alter the screenshots in order for some of the jokes to work. I'm not dedicated enough to this idea to give myself a real YASD just to post a joke.
I will put each one in its own post, complete with title. Hope you all enjoy!

1. Switches are fun!
BB Screenshot created.
There is a shotgun (8d3) [1/1] lying here.

Considering that I'm a YASD Factory, all you have to do is wait for me to post a screenshot or three...

"Hmmmm... I wonder what this switch does?"
What did it really do? Just curious :P (would be so funny if it was what you silently suggested it to be :D)

4. Cacodemons! Wait a Mi--
You push the barrel.

This is Private YASD! In other words, everything is exactly what you expect it to be. ;)
-
Yeah, the level lava flooding thing.
-
Hmm... if this is popular enough, I was thinking maybe we can set up a web-comic based on it, kinda like the old Dudley's dungeon.
Of course, it will not update all that regularly, but I suppose it would be fun! And this would make the PR folks crack their heads more wondering about the MoM when the time comes. More work for all to stimulate creativity -- I like! (=
-
Considering the simplicity of DoomRL I doubt there are more than half a dozen unique ways to achieve YASD so it would be a very short webcomic
-
Maybe put together a 'Private YASD's Guide on What Not to Do in DoomRL' part comic, part strategy guide?
