1* Rincewind is drowning his sorrows in The Mended Drum when Conina accosts him:
2-->'''Conina''': Psst!
3-->'''Rincewind''': Not yet, but I'm working on it.[[note]]For those who don't get the joke, "Psst" sounds like "pissed", which is British slang for "profoundly drunk/intoxicated"[[/note]]
4* The moment you realise that Creosote, Nijel and Conina have stolen [[spoiler:the horses of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse.]]
5** The reactions of the horses' owners, too.
6** "We can't be the One Horseman and Three Pedestrians of the Apocalypse!"
7** They then decide to get drunk instead.
8* Vetinari [[ForcedTransformation getting turned into a newt]]. [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail He gets better]].
9* The bit when a voice speaks up in Rincewind's mind, saying "You rather like her, don’t you? I can tell", and the exchange afterwards. [[spoiler:It was his libido speaking.]]
10* "Laugh This One Off". Funny to everyone, except the poor sap beneath the slab (or the poor sap who just missed getting hit by it).
11* Rincewind trying to build a tower in his sleep while Creosote, Conina, and Nijel watch him incompetently do so.
12--> "Rincewind carefully tried to balance a large rock on a small pebble. It fell off, but he appeared to be happy with the result."
13* What the Librarian is doing to a damaged book: an [[{{Pun}} Appendixectomy.]]
14* When the heroes come across the mind-controlled [[spoiler: Abrim]], and Nijel searches his instruction book for how to deal with the undead. Turns out vampires can be defeated with garlic, whereas for zombies you need sea salt and lemon--
15-->'''Conina:''' We're trying to kill him, not cook him!
16* The initial description of Abrim, because he's so much of a DastardlyWhiplash. "He twirled his moustache, probably foreclosing about a dozen mortgages."
17* The Tripple Orc thrust with extra flip!
18** Of course, all he does is get his sword stuck in the ceiling.
19-->'''Nijel:''' I broke a lot of mirrors learning that one!
20* "The Librarian dropped on him like the descent of Man."
