I shot an arrow in the air
In who it landed, I do not care...
A mage character of mine, proficient with longbow, but not very good with it. It didn't really matter if the arrows hit anything, the idea was to get a LOT of arrows in the air at once. When the enemy quickly moved from an open formation to forming their shield wall, it was fireball time. (widened)

GM: Make the spell roll. Just don't roll three sixes.
Me: (Rolls) You just had to say it, didn't you?

The crit fail nearly took down the entire dwarven mountain. Thousands of dwarves had to flee from the earthquake.

Me (to the rest of the party, when we met up after the chaotic exodus): I'll never admit to anyone what happened back there.

Two characters, one a doctor, the other a psychic healer, are discussing the third, another psychic with severe brain damage.

Angel: “It’s like a fridge.”
Teo: “You can’t get hurt in it.”
Angel: “No! My organs are soft and squishy. It’s not the moving, it’s the stopping and bouncing around.”
GM: “It’s like, when you’re watching a post-apocalyptic movie and those rusted out trucks you use for cover.”
Bree (OOC): “But it’s somehow still moving. It’s the Nokia of trucks.”

Angel (OOC): “Teo probably calls a tape measure a ‘roll of inches’ or something.”
Teo (OOC): “Yeah. Everyone, get your inch rolls out.”
GM (OOC): “Is that what the kids are calling it these days?”

Bree (OOC): “At this point, she doesn’t need ice cream. She needs whisky.”

Bree: “Ugh. Now I know where I saw him—he’s my neighbor. Who wrote this book and how do I file a complaint.”

Angel: “Angel is going to buy a book on friendship—magical friendship.”
Teo (OOC): “Friendship is magical.”

Ilzo walked into a magical trap that caused him to believe that the rest of us were goblins about to attack him. So he attacked us. A couple of rounds into the fray, this dialogue occurred:

Initiative tracker (me): Leopold, it's your turn.
Leopold: Already?
Me: Yeah. Combat goes much faster when there are no enemies.
