* In ''Sojourn'', Drizzt pretends to be a very melodramatic black dragon [[BalefulPolymorph trapped in the form of a drow]], who's starting to develop [[TheMindIsThePlaythingOfTheBody an unnatural fondness for spiders]]. This manages to gross out the red dragon he's talking to, and then Drizzt starts worrying about what will happen if the dragon develops enough sympathy to turn him "back."

MagicMirror.
-->Perhaps it was a teleportation door to another section of the city, perhaps a simple door to a room beyond. Or perhaps, Alton dared to imagine in those few desperate seconds, this was some interplanar gate that would bring him into a strange and unknown plane of existence!\\
He felt the tingling excitement of adventure pulling him on as he neared the wondrous thing—then he felt only the impact, the shattering glass, and the unyielding stone wall behind it.\\
Perhaps it was
just a mirror.

* In ''Homeland'', when Drizzt turns sixteen, Malice tells him he's allowed to look up and make eye contact with people, as he is no longer a lowly page prince. Drizzt interprets his newfound rights a ''little'' too broadly, to a level that [[RefugeInAudacity Malice is too shocked by his sheer audacity to punish him.]] Zaknafein has to bite himself to keep from bursting out laughing.

** And then the guy trying to kill him is ''pissed'' that his mirror's broken - to the point he claims that's ''why'' he's trying to kill Alton. (Mirrors aren't easy to come by in a naturally pitch-black environment.)

* After escaping from yet another Underdarkian peril, there is a paragraph which starts, “They ran through the winding tunnels blindly, hoping that no monsters would rear up suddenly before them.” The sheer blandness of the statement, coupled with the no-fuckin'-duh sentiment-- 'hoping that no monsters would rear up suddenly before them' could be appended to nearly EVERY sentence in ANY book-- makes this line unintentionally hilarious. And that's even before getting into the Fourth Wall Painting wink-and-a-nod to Random Encounters aspect.
