Other games'
Had an amusing, silly or perhaps embarrassing situation in a computer game lately? Tell us all about it! Screenshots would be grand.
To start off, here's what happened to my Gray Elven Archer in ADOM yesterday:
Since not everyone is familiar with this genre, and especially ADOM, here's a brief explanation of what's going on:
green @ - my character
blue d - werewolf
dark gray d - dire wolf
light gray d - wolf
blue g - goblin
w - some sort of worm
dark gray N - cave bear
brown r - rat
On the bottom of the screen you can see the character's statistics. When I got surrounded by not one, but two summoners (in ADOM, werewolves (in analogy to wererats and jackalweres) summon packs of wolves), I groaned, killed a few, saved the game and took a break. My archer may be darn hard to hit, but arrows just won't do against dozens of wolves attacking eight at a time, and they'd take ages to dispatch by knife.
So how about you? Had any slap-on-the-forehead moments in non-HoMM games lately?

Two little Gnoll boys sitting in the sun;
One got frizzled up and then there was one.
One little Gnoll boy left all alone;
He went and hung himself and then there were none.

You didn't by any change, looking for some trouble there Woock? 
One of the most irritating things in ADOM or Nethack is when you go down the stairs\teleporter and you found yourself pinned againts the wall whit stronger monster than you are. If it's D the right strategic button would be escape..

Those were more of an annoyance, actually, especially if you take note of the character's high DV. Pearleye later got out of two similar situations in the same location, advanced two levels and is currently being overrun by giant spiders. Still, summoners are a cause of many "D'oh!" moments in the Big Room.
