Maxxis was hired to guard the visiting dictator of a militant moonbase-nation. When the entourage was ambushed, he forgot his job description...and ducked behind the dignitary for cover. His employers showed their disapproval in gunshots.

Me (as DM): There is a green slimy substance all over the stone door.
Player: Taste it.

The acronym ROFLMAO doesn't come close to my reaction to this one! Allow me tp express it in emoticon form:
plus many more...

LOL! It's like he asked the DM to taste it instead of him tasting it!

Let me guess. It was poison.

I'm guessing green slime.

 

[Lalalei2001]

Is that poisonous? (I haven't had green slime in a campaign for a while).

Green slime is much worse than poisonous, it disolves any organic matter it's in contact with turning it into more green slime. Think of it as self reproducing Draino...

Owch, lol. Now I get it

Here's one my friend did.

The party had tied all their 50' ropes together and were using them to mark the halls. They came across a deep pit. The ranger decided to jump. He tied one of the ropes around his waist and the other two fighters held the opposite end.

The theory was, if he missed the far edge, the other two could stop his fall and pull him back up. The ranger leaped, and missed the far end. It wasn't until this exact moment that the group realized that they'd never untied all the ropes... the ranger was plummeting down a 30' pit with 200' of rope.
