DM: Applejack, the path you're on swiftly becomes a winding, climbing one through a rocky part of the land…
Applejack: Wha?
DM: ...that eventually ends in a tall cliff.
Applejack: ...Oh no.
Rainbow Dash: HAAAAHAHAHA! Gotcha! Ooooh, I got you so good!
Applejack: But you… How did you… Oh, you... Mmmrgh.
Twilight Sparkle: You did nothing, right?
Rainbow Dash: Duh! The best way to beat a metagamer is to let them beat themselves. Now there's nothing between me and that ticket!
Twilight Sparkle: But, if you waited to make sure Applejack went down that path… And now you're talking to me in last place… That means…
Rainbow Dash: Wait, I thought this was out-of-character!
DM: Sorry, evil laughter is NOT a free action. I should know; you've interrupted enough of my villains' monologues.
Have you ever try to convince someone of something, but ended up convincing yourself the complete opposite?
Castle Sweet Castle (yep. People are finally posting real vidoes on YouTube) a few minutes after the intro, Pinkie Pie does a good example
In a Pony RP, we were inside a Harry Potter comic book playing out a scenario where we all were students needing to be able to pass a teleporting exam. This was an interesting challenge for us earth ponies and pegasi to figure out.
During all that, we were harassed by a rival, a mare named Maleficent (Draco expy) who didn't think we could do it. Well not only did we all manage to pass the teleport test, but our party unicorn managed to teleport with our party, thus passing with the highest grade in class and upstaging Maleficent! :D
Then came the icing-- my character (an earth pony) went over to our rival and offered an olive branch to have lunch together in celebration of everyone passing the test. I caused her to "blue screen" because she expected gloating and not friendship. :D
... *Five minutes of uncontrollable laughter later*...
Beyond the fact I want to hear how everyone passed, I think that is just one of the best comebacks and reactions I've ever heard.
Yeah, I don't think I have anything for table turning other then the DM regretting giving us some relatively over powered magic items in this dungeon excursion, but that's probably been seen by everyone by now.

I just don't feel it.

Though, that does bring a sad concept I remember about always trying to overcome the greatest challenge you can find, and then being unable to find anything after-words.
