If a dwarf is very unhappy (tantruming), he'll have a flashing yellow exclamation point. If he's so miserable that he's on the brink of a tantrum, he'll flash a red down arrow. If they are in a special strange mood they will have some other color of exclamation point, each colour relating to a different kind of strange mood. See the article on status icons for more information
