DM: "You're in an empty room with a wall going down one side with a door, a wall on the opposite side with a door... Wait. Why am I describing this? You know what a room is. It's rectangular, four walls. There's a door on each wall. What do?"

Me (wizard) and the Sorcerer were shopping for some magic stuff at a Drow's place.
Drow: I can offer you this spellscroll for 5 sovereigns
I obviously assumed this was either a scam or the deal of a lifetime. A spellscroll for 5 gold? c'mon. So I grab the scroll, excited as hell, and read it.
DM: It's Fog Cloud.
The entire party broke into laughter while I gave a very unamused look.

5 PCs and an old, decrepit NPC are falling down a pit trap that they know is deep but is likely not bottomless. The Warlock has been giving the Rogue a hard time all through the entire adventure, including but not limited to covering the Rogue in spiders.
Rogue: "I can cast Feather Fall." Bard and Druid: "Do it!" Rogue: "I can cast it on up to 5 people." Warlock: "I always liked you, [Rogue]!" Rogue: "I'm going to cast it on everyone but [Warlock]." Warlock: "Noooo!" Paladin (of uncertain alignment doing terrible on atoning for some unknown sin): "Wait. Don't we think [NPC] has had a full life?" NPC (DM): "I don't!" Paladin: "Quiet you!" Warlock: "I'll be your best friend!" Rogue: "... Fine, but you owe me." Warlock: "Yes!" Rogue: "Sorry, [NPC]." NPC: "What?!"
How the NPC managed to survive with her knees up past her shoulders looking all accordionated is best not questioned. She is from a city of the dead. That might have something to do with it.

I think "Cthulhu-dad" would have stepped in to save Prudence, but that's just my opinion. Of course, who knows what he would have done to Corazon in retaliation for making him step in.

Player: bah! a disappointment. I add them to my bag anyway.
