Re: Unintentional giggles
I usually giggle whenever Sofie randomly picks up a lute and starts playing it, or whenever she plays with a doll I gave her. The doll-playing animations for the latter are very strange. xD

Karthspire Camp, the female Forsworn patrolling by the forge on the topmost platform, who was SO scared of me that in her haste to "hide" by pretending to take a bath in the water trough with her clothes on, had dived in head-first, knocked herself out and drowned face-down in a few inches of water! Screenshot
OK, it "looks" like I dragged the body into the water trough and "composed" it in that position, but I assure you, that WAS the way she landed. Actually, I'd Sneaked up behind her and scored a power blow with my sword for 6x damage while Hidden. It's "million to one chance" moments like this which get me reaching for the Print Screen key to take a screenshot, just to prove it DID happen.

On my new character, we were having Kodlak's funeral. When I got up to the Skyforge he was face down with his ass stuck up in the air while everyone was being all somber.

Re: Unintentional giggles
I'm not sure why, but I always get a good laugh when followers get stuck in place running. My characters just stand there encouragingly, laughing on the inside. Or when they do the moonwalk.
A rather entertaining moment happened while Onmund and my assassin were fighting a dragon. Onmund started whacking the dragon with his sword and a staff. It had to have been a glitch but he was dual wielding with a freaking staff. It was amusing.

Re: Unintentional giggles
I've encountered a glitch where my follower leaves my service and runs away every time I exit a dungeon. It's like "I've had enough of these crazy adventures. No amount of gold or life experience is worth this!" Extra points when their character model is riddled with ice spikes or arrows when they take off running.

Re: Unintentional giggles
That bandit looks so contented...
edit: Just entered Markarth for the first time with my new Nord character, Brom. Caught Weylin before he could assassinate Margret and got the decapitation killing move for two-handed. His head hilariously continued to roll gently down the slope in the background as the guards gathered around and complained about the mess.

Re: Unintentional giggles
@Avron. Yeah, I didn't giggle until I noticed he'd died with his eyes wide open and was staring at me with that goofy dazed expression on his face.
Has anyone seen the wind-up clockwork Draugr? Due to a navmesh error, he gets stuck facing a wall and continually trying to walk THROUGH it while taking no notice of you (his AI is stuck in an infinite loop trying to reach an unreachable navmesh node INSIDE the wall). I didn't kill him, just left him there for later laughs. But I've forgotten which dungeon he was in! If anyone finds him, please let me know where so I can go back and give the imaginary wind-me-up key in his back another few turns...
A thing I've noticed about decapitations which always makes me giggle. You loot the corpse, take the helmet, yet the severed head is STILL wearing it!

I recall seeing the Draugr always walking into the wall in Snow Veil Sanctum. It's very easy to get a sneak attack on that one.

Re: Unintentional giggles
Anika and Serana walk out of Lakeview Manor. There's a flash of lightning, shortly followed by a rumble of thunder, and Serana says, "This must be that beautiful Skyrim weather I've always heard about." It struck me as funny, since I don't think she actually reacts to the weather (she'll talk about wanting to get out of the sun when it's dark outside).

Re: Unintentional giggles
I went to Arcwind Point with Serana today. After fighting the dragon, we were attacked by about seven skeletons. Serana killed each one on her own, right after another, with a lightning bolt apiece. You know how bodies usually go flying when she hits one at the right moment? Now imagine skeletons exploding at the same speed one after another and bones raining down everywhere. It was like skeleton fireworks.

Re: Unintentional giggles
One time I was charging around the whiterun area, in beast form, and as I lope past Valthiem towers, the bandit outside asks me for road tax! I paid it, killed her, massacured the bandit camp, then on the way out I reclaimed my gold. T'was a good time.

Re: Unintentional giggles
This is probably going to sound weird, but lately I've been getting a good laugh from the way Sylmirie screams when she uses her sword. It sounds so funny and gives me a mental image of a barbie doll trying to swing a weapon. "Rawr! Take this!" and suddenly she's out of breath.
So poor Sylmirie has been using her sword more often now to provide me with a good chuckle.

Re: Unintentional giggles
Had a moment earlier when I walked past a group of Imperials wandering in the Rift.
One turns to another and complains that the Imperial Studded Armor is "damn heavy." I walk past wearing full Daedric Armor and can't help but smirk and think that my Daedric armor is causing me no problems at all, therefore the Imperials may as well be twigs. Or milk-drinkers. Either way.
Maybe they should drink more milk to get some calcium to strengthen up those bones, huh?

Re: Unintentional giggles
I for some reason was under the impression that sabrecats wouldn't cross running water. Cats hate to get their feet wet, right? One day I was out with a new character, a Breton alchemist with no armour whatsoever. I spied a sabrecat patrolling on the other side of a river and cheekily decided to improve my ranged attacks. Well, the cat didn't think very much of this. He dove into the river, swam across and suddenly it was Hello Kitty! The sabrecat was right in my face.
At that point I swore and pretty much set myself up to reload. All my little Breton girl had on was a plain set of robes and an iron dagger, no match for a big cat at close range. I tried to escape by diving down the riverbank, but then the sabrecat somehow got stuck. He lay down, floating in mid-air while I managed to slowly fry him to a crisp with a flames spell, even waiting long enough for my magicka to restore! That was one lucky glitch.
