Discworld is awesome.

Read the books.

Hilarious.

Go find nearly anything by Terry Pratchett.

For example, there's Bloody Stupid Johnson. The best/worst architect to ever exist.

Only Bloody Stupid Johnson could have invented the 13-inch foot and a triangle with three right angles in it. Only Bloody Stupid Johnson could have twisted common matter through dimensions it was not supposed to enter. And only Bloody Stupid Johnson could have done all this by accident.
 

Oh and Death.

Vimes: 'Is this it? This time I die?'
death: could be.
Vimes: 'Could be? What sort of answer is that?'
death: a very accurate one. you see, you are having a near death experience, which inescapably means that i must undergo a near vimes experience. don't mind me. carry on with whatever you were doing. i have a book.
And the aforementioned Vimes.

'Sam Vimes once arrested me for treason. And Sam Vimes once arrested a dragon. Sam Vimes stopped a war between nations by arresting two high commands. He's an arresting fellow, Sam Vimes. Sam Vimes killed a werewolf with his bare hands, and carries law with him like a lamp. Watchmen across half the continent will say that Sam Vimes is as straight as an arrow, can't be corrupted, won't be turned, never took a bribe.'
 

Don't break the law while Vimes is around.

‘What is sticking in your foot is a Mitzy “Pretty Lucretia” four-inch heel, the most dangerous footwear in the world. Considered as pounds per square inch, it’s like being trodden on by a very pointy elephant. Now, I know what you’re thinking: you’re thinking, “Could she press it all the way through to the floor?” And, you know, I’m not sure about that myself. The sole of your boot might give me a bit of trouble, but nothing else will. But that’s not the worrying part. The worrying part is that I was forced practically at knifepoint to take ballet lessons as a child, which means I can kick like a mule; you are sitting in front of me; and I have another shoe.
 

Adora Belle Dearheart

She's frightening.

Don't forget Rincewind the wizard. He's the worst wizard on the Disc. He's so terrible at it that he can even use magic. His first response to any threat is to run away. Despite this he has beaten an Eldridge horror from beyond the veil of time to death with his bear hand and has gone up against a Sourcerer (the eighth son of an eighth son of an eighth son. A wizard squared.A source of magic, close to omnipotent) with just a halfbrick in a sock.
Hey son, wanna' learn how ta' make witch balls?
