History Funny / Mistborn

* ''Allomancer Jak and the Pits of Eltania''. Published InUniverse [[TwoFistedTales pulp serial]] about a self-proclaimed GentlemanAdventurer, [[FootnoteFever copiously annotated]] by a [[DeadpanSnarker long-suffering]] associate of the IdiotHero? Oh, yes. He mentions in the footnotes that CliffHangers made the original readers ''storm the newspaper''.

* Funny/TheMistbornAdventures

* The books have plenty funny moments, especially conversations involving Vin's dry humor. Most notably when the chivalrous Elend enters Vin's private rooms.
-->Vin: Why did you knock?
-->Elend: Well . . . you might have been changing, or getting dressed.
-->Vin: So . . . ?
** In the same book . . .
-->Oreseur: What about you? Are you a good person?
-->Vin: Oh, no, not me. I'm not a good person or a bad person. I'm just here to kill things.
* "He ate my horse."
* From ''Hero Of Ages,'' Elend and Ham have just decided [[spoiler: not to send a force of 40,000 Koloss to attack Fadrex City, which would likely have resulted in the deaths of most of the population]]
-->Ham smiled. "Cett's going to be furious."
-->Elend shrugged. "He's a paraplegic. [[CrossesTheLineTwice What's he going to do? Bite us?]]"
* When [[spoiler:Elend]] does something stupidly risky in the second book:
-->[[spoiler:Elend]]: Stay here, wait to see if I get back. If I don't, tell Vin what happened.
-->Ham: Sure, I'll tell her. Then I'll proceed to remove her daggers from my chest.
* After Kelsier [[spoiler:comes back from destroying the atium crystals in the [[TheAlcatraz Pits of Hathsin]]]]:
-->'''Ham''': Where were you? We've been worried sick that you were out doing something...well, stupid.
-->'''Breeze''': Actually, we took it for granted that you were doing something stupid. We've just been wondering ''how'' stupid this particular event would turn out to be. So, what is it? Did you assassinate the lord prelan? Slaughter dozens of noblemen? Steal the cloak off the Lord Ruler's own back?
-->'''Kelsier''': I [[spoiler:destroyed the Pits of Hathsin]].
-->''stunned silence''
-->'''Breeze''': You know, you'd think that by now we'd have learned not to underestimate him.
* Vin, on her mysterious acquisition of a ball gown in the last book:
-->'''Elend:''' Seriously, Vin, the army's tailors are good, but there's no way that dress came from materials we had in the camp. Where did you get it?
-->'''Vin:''' It's a mystery. We Mistborn are incredibly mysterious.
-->'''Elend:''' Um... [[spoiler:I'm Mistborn, too, Vin.]] That doesn't make any sense.
-->'''Vin:''' We Mistborn need not make sense. It's beneath us.
** This, incidentally, is a CallBack to Kelsier's use of the same explanation in the first book.
* From the same scene, Ham finally finding a captive audience for his [[ThePhilosopher philosophical ponderings]]. It's easy to imagine that only the convenient scene transition prevented a BigNo.
** Yeah, that was hilarious. Especially because the captive audience was Cett, who absolutely hated listening to Ham's philosophical ponderings. I believe the exchange went something like this:
-->'''Ham''' So, you can't go anywhere unless someone moves you, right? [Cett is a paraplegic.]
-->'''Cett''' Noooo....
-->'''Ham''' Well in that case, I have some interesting philosophical questions I've been meaning to discuss with someone...
* When Elend told Vin that killing [[spoiler: his fiance, brother and father]] was a homicidal hat trick.
* Everything Breeze says. Ever. Especially when he [[VitriolicBestFriends gets in arguments with Ham.]]
** During one of those arguments, Oreseur muses that it would just be better if he ate one of them. Then he and Vin discuss who would taste better.
* In the first book, Kelsier's crew has a meeting in the beginning for starting to formulate a plan to take down the Lord Ruler. Kelsier gets them to list the problems they're going to have to deal with and write them down on the blackboard. After everyone lists a lot of problems, Yeden adds something pessimistic along the lines of "The fact that this plan is doomed to fail and we're all going to die," and Kelsier writes on his list of problems they have to deal with, "Yeden's bad attitude."
* When Vin comes to Sazed, asking for advice in her relationship with Elend, mentioning how different the two of them are. Then, not five minutes later, Elend comes to Sazed... asking for advice in his relationship with Vin. Mentioning how different the two of them are. Sazed calmly replies: "Oh, I don't know about that, Lord Elend. You may be surprised at how similarly the two of you think."
* In the second book, Vin finds herself absentmindedly petting her wolfhound, [[spoiler:who is also Oreseur in disguise. He's not sure what to make of the situation.]]
