My characters often end up exasperated by how idiotic and chaotic the other ~characters~ players are. That checks out.

"So the walls started bleeding, a thousand voices cried out in pain, and a sinkhole into the unseen depths opened in the kitchen."

"Right."

"And you, a normal human with no magical powers or special equipment, you jumped into the sinkhole."

"Yes."

"Why?"

"It was there!"

"And then your character died, as one would expect from a hundred foot drop onto stone. And now?"

"I don't understand. What else was I supposed to do??"

Ok, so, the trick is to make sure the NPC's are the same way. That'll really confuse the players.

Person jumps off a roof and splats in front of the party

player: "why did that happen?"

dm: "They had just purchased boots of flying from an untrustworthy source and figured this was the best way of testing them."

Having the party run into a group of edgy adventurers is always a fun time.
