GM rolls dice.

GM: Uh oh...

That's never good.

Another favorite of mine, which sometimes happens and makes us cringe.

Player: Offers to do something really stupid.
GM: Looks confused, ask PC if PC understands the situation.
Player: nods yes.
GA: Are you SURE you want to "insert something stupid here"
Player: nods yes and grabs his dice.
All other players: *cringe*

(something I do to my players regularly)

GM: Roll Initiative, everyone.
*players roll*
*GM rolls 4 dice and writes down some numbers*
*again*
*and again*
*and about 8 more times*
Players: Uuuuum ...... where was that exit again?

Hey, everyone has a right to be paranoid.

Or, from an IC PoV:

Mage: What do you mean a pentagram only has FIVE sides?

**********

Newbie: *hands character sheet to the GM* How much starting ammo do my guns come with?

**********

Samari: My weapon seems to have no effect?
GM: That's right, it bounces off harmlessly.
Samari: Oh, okay. So I pull out a bigger weapon and swing at the statue again.

**********

Rigger: My vehicle comes with a gas can, right?

**********

GM: I don't think that's a lifestyle expense, bud.

**********


That's all I can think of that's humorous for now.

GM: Everybody roll Quickness.
Six players roll dice... Results:

Lead Troll trips.
Math Prof trips.
Mage #1 trips.
Mage #2 trips.
Mage #3 trips.
PhysAd walks into pile of bodies.

Edit: Oh, and, did I mention we were in a sewer with hardly a way of seeing?

Yeah, thought so...

Edit #2: Yes. We had three mages/shamans in the group. #2 was the Cat Shaman who forgot she had Levitate Person, so kept having to cast "Clean" and other such spells on herself.

GM: "The bouncer asks if your character is carrying any guns into the bar."

Player: "Uh, he's got a light pistol."

GM: "The bouncer says 'That won't be enough' and hands you a heavy pistol."

Actually heard ones, on Tuesday:

"Oh. Hey. I probably should have bought ammo for my guns, huh?"
(Of course, I let him have some.)

"I tell the guy we're interrogating 'We're going to kill you no matter what you say, but if you talk I'll kill you quickly.'"
He had a pain editor, lucky him.

:rotfl: You have captured his speech perfectly there... makes me cringe!

Okay, how about this - from the first ever run I GM'd:

Me: Okay, that's the last enemy down - all five are down and dead. What do you do now?

Ork player: Loot their gear! Loot their gear!

Me: <sighing> Okay, I guess you can do that before the cops arrive. You take all their stuff... Next?

Dwarf Player (not wanting to be out-done by the Ork): Do they have any cyberware we can take? I have a cleaver and scalpel - it's on my sheet, look...

Me: .................................

During character introductions:

Player: He's very short with blonde hair and pale skin.
--
The next line from the above player:
"He looks young and has a datajack but no deck"
or
"He has no cyberware and is wearing ceramic pendants under his FFBA"

"Teeth..." -- Mage returning from an astral scout before fainting

An old one: "Was that the GM rolling dice or did a thunderstorm pop up suddenly?"

"I can dikote it, right?"

"What's a lifestyle?"

Fixer asking Decker about his setup: "Yeah, it's a custom job, MPCP 8 rated 6/5/7/6 with Level 3 Hardening, Response Increase 2, Ten thousand MP of active memory, and a case that can stop a round from a Preditor." "Okay, what programs do you have?" "Programs?"

"What do you mean the CXII doesn't come with a detonator?"

And my personal favorite so far...

"The elf driving the van has long red hair pulled into a ponytail..."

(Always best with a GM screen)

"Damn, what are the odds of that?"

"No, seriously, who has a calculator?"

"Holy crap!"

"How many rounds left in your clip?"

"Huh?"

"I cast Toxic Wave/Urban Renewal/Turn to Goo."

Hey Reaver, didn't Ice get up and go to the bathroom last time you said that?

"Ill take a shot at the jet."
"Your inside the blimp."
"Yea, I know."

-=shoots through armored glass=-

Sad thing is, the troll hit both aircraft he shot at.


Heres another good one:
GM to player:
"Hey, whats your willpower?"
