A Half-Dragon Fighter, a Weretiger Barbarian/Assassin, a Wizard and the Ultimate mutilclasser (Paladin, Sorcerer, Rogue, Cleric level 12... CHA 30 and female.)

"Damn... see if you can make him lower the price..."
"Sure... Charisma Check... plus 14 ranks in Diplomacy... that's uh... 49?
GM: "Okay... You make the check... and the real question is... how far are you willing to go..."
One akward silence later... "Nevermind."
Later on...
"Well... we could hostile take over the halfling town..."
"And how's that accomplished?"
"We're all roughly twice as tall as them... and if that doesn't work... Free Beer. It works every time!"
"Let's try Plan A..." Gm rolls some dice... "That doesn't work and the half-lings think you're nuts."
"FREE BEER!"
The GM rolled some more dice and discovered that the free beer ploy works.
Another session. The Paladin wins 80 gold from Drinking Contests... and walks away. Later on, he backhands someone for real damage... and since it was a peasant... died.
Yet ANOTHER session. (This is a modern campaign mind you)
"Okay! Using my fifty caliber machine gun... I shoot out the elevator's roof and jump on it!"
The GM rolls some dice. "Are you wearing a cup with all that Kevlar?"
"Yes... why?"
"A vampire just hit you in the nuts while you were trying to climb up... be glad of the cup."
