Well that was pathetic...didn't even do anything

I cast calm on a witch. It worked, but she didn't realise, and said the words in the topic title (as she turned to walk away). Even better, she was a High Elf, so she had that haughty English accent.

I'm still giggling about it now. I love the little bits of humour in Skyrim. It's kind of a counter-balance to the otherwise grim atmosphere.

Skyrim is actually surprisingly funny. I like the Illusion master at the College of Winterhold.

"YOU! Yes, you! Can you see me!"
"I... no. I can't see you."
"But you can still hear me. Clearly something's not quite right yet..."

:P

I thought it was funny when I almost killed a theif, he surrendered and said "I'll let you live, this time" and limped off

I do love the remarks many of the world's characters spout off as they are dying/losing. I just wish they were really scripted to give up.

He didn't turn around and attack you once his health regenerated to over 10%?

You know what I found hilarious recently.
I went invisible and pick-pocketed a certain NPC, and he began to go on about the cowardice of thieves and their pickpocket shenanigans.
It was like he knew I was invisible and standing right there and was trying to goad me out of hiding.

The same thing happened while using invisibility to sneak through a fort. The bandits were going on about mages and insulting them.

I had some named necromancer comment that she was concerned I was looking ill as she turned and walked away from my lifeless corpse at her feet. I actually laughed out loud on that one.

I was already gone by then, he sheathed his weapon unlike most bandits and Forsworn
This wasn't a bandit, this is the theif who starts dialogue with you.

More annoying than funny, but whenever I kill someone using a charging power attack, they always say something like "Hey, watch it!" or "What's the hurry?!"

Shot a guard in the eye with an arrow... Convinced him to look the other way, this time...
Shot his other eye... Still he looked the other way...
Shot him in the back of the head... He died...

When he died, another guard had to look the other way for him... Being a Thane is fun!

I actually dread getting within 3 feet of anyone walking in my general direction.
In the game of course. In real life, most people are not that lonely and looney.

How about in a forum post...

"So, the other day I was told that I have crabs. I think one of them stole my sweet-role, so I told the guard with the limp. Oh, have you met my wife? She is the care-taker at the inn. She has great discounts on beds. Did I tell you that my arthritis and hemorrhoids have been acting-up lately? Think you could run down to the healer and get me a potion for my ex-lax-mouth-syndrome?"

P.S. Don't sleep in his wife's bed, at the Inn... You will loose your sweet-roll too!

Another one that just happened and made me laugh out loud.

I set my Dremora Lord on a Draughr Wight. The fight didn't last long, at all. As he was sheathing his sword, the Dremora turned and spoke to me directly: "No match at all." He sounded so disappointed and fed up. I think it's the voice acting that makes it so good.

I got in a brawl with an Orc chief. As per usual, I just backpedaled and strafed to avoid his punches, and jabbed him occasionally. His comments were hilarious.

"YOU'RE DEAD!" *jab* "GRAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!" *double jab* "SONUVA[censored]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" *jab* "RAGHARAGHAFRARARGH!!!!!!"

After I kicked his ass, I walked over to his daughter and made her my follower. I also eventually married her.

He was at the wedding.... Wearing his usual shirtless fur armor, with a waraxe at his hip, slinging insults at anybody that got near him.

I can only wish that when I get married IRL, my in-laws are so kind and sophisticated.

The guards are almost as psychic as they were in Oblivion. Atleast with the comments they make. One of them mentioned they knew I killed some one awhile back. Which was true I had killed the person earlier on in the game for a DB quest. Yet this was a guard in a completely different city. WTF!?!? lol
