Funny moments.. non-scripted

Been getting knee deep in BG1 lately, and come across a few rather humorous moments while playing.
The first happened in Beregost with the Halfling (or gnome?) that pickpockets you in the Inn after he gives you a mission.. I didn't realize he was a quest giver and realized he pick pocketed me, so figured I would attack him to get my gold back. He ran away by going up the stairs.. so my party follows him, and he goes back down to the first level through the other staircase. I send half my party down the stairs and keep the others on the top level.. then he disappears, presumeably escaping through the main entrance to the building. Rather funny... a party of 6 adventurers chasing a hobbit up and down stairs in an inn to retrieve less than 100 gold pieces.
The next incident happened on my way back from Ulcaster.. Minsc didn't have a bludgeoning weapon to attack the Mustard Jelly with, so I decided to equip his "fist" and use that.. With his strength, it does enough damage that at least he's contributing to killing the Jelly. Well, after leaving Ulcaster my party gets waylaid by 6 kobolds. I split my party up and send them to different kobolds, because usually they take around 1-2 hits to kill, and they're easy to hit. So, after the battle ends, I notice a red circle with a Kobold laying in it, and I mouse over the Kobold and the tooltip says "near death".. I scroll back in the text and it says:
"Minsc did 7 damage to kobold"
"Kobold - Unconscious."
...I forgot to change his weapon back from fists, so he was doing subdued damage and knocked the Kobold out in 1 punch. HAHAHAH.
To quote Minsc: "You point, I PUNCH!"
