Active biomass: Heat your planet by 1 degrees just with the body heat you produce (cell stage?)
Should have resisted shiny tide pods: As a transparent creature, eat bioluminescent algea, shine brightly and be eaten by a bigger creature which easily found you
Completed without one cycle: Have (the drift velocity of the electrons in your wires or the mechanical circuit conveyor belt speed or the speed of the fuel that is being pumped) times (the time between when you first built the infrastructure and when you completed industrial stage) be less than (the distance between your cities times two) for any two of your cities
Damn it we should’ve had an epic battle: Defeat a secret organisation, but nobody notices, and conspiricy theories remain unchanged, and so strong in fact, that some of the theorists sympatethic to the cause, disappointed at its nonexistance, decide to create it
Evolved hammering: Do metalurgy on your bones that aren’t covered with other tissues (aware)
2d cheetah: Have two legs in front of each other

Medieval katrina: Be hit with a hurricane in society stage
Polandball: Have every country in your planet use circular flags with faces on them like Trappist-1e’s profile picture
