I find this exchange from Brandon Sanderson's book Warbreaker to be hilarious:
Allmother's priest steps up, holding a bundle of fur tied tightly with ropes.
Allmother: This is yours, I am told?
Lightsong: Ah, yes. Terribly sorry. It kind of got away from me.
Allmother: With an accidental Command to find me? Then run around in circles screaming?
Lightsong: That actually worked? Interesting. My high priest didn't think the squirrel's brain would be capable of following such complicated Commands
Allmother: *stern look*
Lightsong: Oh. I mean, 'Whoops. It completely misunderstood me. Stupid squirrel.'
