I was looking for Nirnroot along the shore of Lake Rumare, when just outside Fort Homestead my character started swimming in midair for no apparent reason.

Ever screwed around with the character creation system? You can do absolutely ridiculous things, like have a character's nose stick into their head. It looks normal from the front, but from the side it looks really weird. You can also flatten your character's head to the point that their head is about half as thick as their neck! You can even make their eyes stick way out from their head on "antenna". Making silly characters is so fun!

It kinda amused me that Arielle Jurard was walking home with my character Illari after the Anvil Recommendation quest, all calm and peaceful, completely ignoring the fact that some random Imperial soldier had suddenly decided to stab her repeatedly in the back.
'Twas The Night After Quest

Order priest robes when placed down normally. They fly around and glitch into things. I learned my lesson last time when the robes got stuck inside fireplace.

Shivering Isles Elytra. Paralyze them. You'll see. It is hilarious.

I wish I had taken a picture of this since I had my digital camera all at the ready but, the last time I played I finished the Hackdirt quest and ended up killing all of the NPCs. Anyway after freeing the argonian woman, I returned to the surface only to find all of the dead NPCs standing upright with their arms outstretched and slowly moving backwards until they moved through the chapel and out of sight.

The funniest glitch that has happened to me in oblivion is whenever the characters and creatures start to, what I call "go in create mode" (whenever they float with There arms stretched out)
I believe it was a grummite I saw doing this.. anyways he was floating in creative mode and I went Over and touched him with the grab button and he flipped and flipped and flew away, far off into the mountains. It was hilarious because I did not expect that at all .. They usually just fall..

My Bosmer just reached 75 Acrobatics. So I thought let's see if we can use houses to reach the roof of the chapel (in Chorrol). I did. I was about to snipe some orc when Dar-ma mysteriously materialized behind me and gave me her usual greetings. After my initial annoyance, I noticed she was heading down the roof. After a long fall I could hear the typical "AOH" that Argonians make. She died. hahahaha.

The Forlorn Watchman completely materialized at the end of the quest, and he was ... Jauffre.

I have the goty edition for 360 and a glitch/bug whatever that is pretty constant and by constant I mean every time I replay the game. Well after It's honestly really funny.

Currently, my back corner open sack in White Stallion Lodge is replicating empty common soul gems. When I take X number from the empty stack and fill them, the number I put back filled is then added to the pile of empties. I'm up to 116 filled and 116 empty now.

I think it is related to the glitch that gives me automatically recharging staves when I start out with two identical staves fully charged and then deplete one of them and switch to the other. It is very handy for corroding armor to boost Armorer skill.

In the very beginning of the game when the emperor is killed you can peek through the wall and see the mythic dawn assassin who kills the emperor and with help from mods and etc. you can kill him and prevent the emperor's death. Kinda it doesn't run right and his death is scripted so yeah there that.

Was recently playing through a new game, made the mistake of issuing a movetoqt command right after taking care of Black Bruno.. It was the middle of the night, Count/Countess Caro didn't appreciate my appearing out of nowhere right next to their bed. They woke up and started coming after me, but the Count missed with one of his swipes and hit his wife, suddenly the two of them started beating the snot out of each other. Apparently not the happiest of marriages. But it was a riot to watch for a few minutes, until they attracted a guard's attention who nailed me for trespassing.

Leyawiin must not be a happy place. A couple of days ago at one of the ayleid ruins by the lake, I came upon the Countess' guard and her handmaiden. They were fighting a bandit and the guard ended up attacking the handmaiden and killing her. More recently (in a different game), I was in Chorrol castle when the little countess came in on her monthly visit. The little twit didn't even say hello to her mother. She walked in with her entrourage, turned around and immediately headed back to Leyawiin.

Awhile after beating "A Brush With Death" I found a painted troll inside the Tiber Septim Hotel XD

Roman Crucifixion!

I killed a bandit archer on the road to Chorrol and when I came back down the road the body was elevated off the ground (vertical) with arms outstretched. The only thing missing was a wooden cross.

Swimming Watchman!

The Forlorn Watchman didn't show, so I went looking. I fojd him about head high up in the air over land doing the breast stroke towards the fort, but not making much progress.

1. Get 100 scrolls by duplicating
2. Duplicate poison apples
3. Be generous with them
4. ????
5. Profit

Okay, so I'm heading back from Bleak Flats Cave with Erthor and we get to the city gate to see Gaston Surilie just walking in a tiny circle about a foot or so above our heads.

Other random things that have happened in the past:

I killed the spell tomes conjuror in Weye and come back the next day to see him still lying in the road in his Oblivion briefs, but his top half was stuck in the road so all I could see was his bottom half. Sort of like those cartoons where some toon is ski jumping and ends up head first in a snowdrift.

Edit:

I've also had the bandit near Chorrol stand with arms outstretched after killing her the previous day.

Once when Lucien LaChance 'visited' me in a ruin, he got into a fight with a conjuror who was stuck in a wall. Funny to watch. I can't remember which ruin, but it must have had a bedroll in it.

I've had enemies (especially ogres and goblins) to fall in interesting poses after I've killed them. I also had two bandits fall into a 'compromising' position after I've killed them. Quite funny-looking.

And Jauffre and Chancellor Ocato got into a huge brawl after the fight with Dagon was over. It was hilarious. I had made Jauffre and Baurus essential, so they just kept knocking each other unconscious.

Oh, I just remembered this. I went back to Leyawiin after closing that gate where there's a dead horse and guard. I go back and the guard AND the horse are standing there. And the guard speaks to me, all the typical guard stuff when you speak back. Yes, he still had that dead look to his face. That was a bit creepy because his mouth didn't move either.

I'm sure there are others, but I can't remember right now.

Okay, just now...something funny:

So Lizaria, my new Orc girl, went to see Thoronir after speaking to Ogier and then Jensine. She waits to ask him about rumors last. What does he say when she asks about rumors?

"I needed some cash, so I went to see Jensine."

Had me chuckling, nice to be able to laugh early in the morning.

Was out doing some underwater exploring, south of IC, west of the "stone door to Vanus" is you come across a rock formation, where all the rocks are floating about 3 feet off the floor of the lake, you can go swim under them, so they are floating.

I'm experiencing a minor graphics glitch where a certain item-- "shirt with suspenders" or something like that-- is listed in the inventory with colorful scrambled garbage instead of its correct thumbnail image.

I tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling, but it didn't make a difference. This is while playing in fullscreen mode.

When I tried to take a screenshot it wouldn't save to my clipboard, so I switched to windowed mode-- but then the item displays with its correct thumbnail image!

So I switched back to fullscreen mode to see if it was fixed, but when I'm in fullscreen mode the thumbnail image is just colorful garbage, as though some resource pointer is pointing to the wrong memory location or something.

I wouldn't call it a glitch per se, but I was storing my stuff in the open top grain sacks in the market district and one of the homeless women dropped dead from eating a poison apple I had in one of them.
