My dragonborn character, named Tiamat, after being hit by a fire arrow: "Frookity frick frack."
The DM (ThorimDuckSlayer) said that it was hilarious to imagine a hulking dragonborn saying "Frookity frick frack". It happened on the "DM Training Grounds: You Are In a Room" thread.
So I get credit for being the person who shot the arrow?
Probably not.

DM: Shenzu, the guards atop the wall see you and start taking shots at you *rolls die* Does a 17 hit your AC?
Shenzu: Yes
DM: *rolls more dice* You take 22 points of damage
Mal: *begins to lightly panic*
Shenzu: I'm really low on health...

In one game we found out that 2/3 of the players had made characters who were either stoners, hippies, or both. What was particularly funny about it was that the last 2 players were one guy who actually was a stoner and another guy who everyone said talked like a stoner. I was the bugbear stoner artificer, whose machines where always made out of found materials.
I don't remember the exact wording, but here is two.
Loxodon Monk after being discovered by two Sahuagin: Punch?
Other Monk: Punch.
(after the fight) DM: Ok, the fish creep is knocked out and lying on the floor. Sorceress (Me): (To the Loxodon) SIT ON HIM!!!!! (Laughter) DM: Ok, he is dead!
Player introducing Loxodon: "His name is Gahn." DM: "If you say his last name is Esh or something like that, you're rerolling a new character right now." Player: "... Anyone have a blank character sheet?"

A newly joined player in response to being asked why he was in the party's tent:
"I like watching you sleep."
(In response to that, another player: '"I think he's going to kill us.")

Here, have a thing I made.
Conquest Paladin: "I can get this guy to talk...Cleric, do you still have that flask of holy oil?"
Cleric: "Sure." (gives Conquest Paladin the oil)
Conquest Paladin: "Bard...can you play some music? Something jaunty, upbeat?"
Bard: "You betcha!" (starts playing their fiddle enthusiastically)
Conquest Paladin: (tapping foot, nodding his head to the beat) "Excellent. Give me a few minutes."
(the Conquest Paladin goes inside the shack to interrogate the prisoner, while the Bard continues to play festive music)
(after a few minutes, there comes the sounds of screams, begging for mercy...followed by the smell of burning)
(the Conquest Paladin walks out of the shack...which is now starting to catch fire...wiping his hands off with a rag)
Conquest Paladin: "Okay...I know where the bandit camp is now."
Conquest Paladin: (turns to Bard) "Thanks...I like listening to music while I work."
Cleric: "You know...I could have used "Zone of Truth" on him."
Conquest Paladin: (the shack now completely ablaze behind him) "That isn't how I do things."
