    My old DM’s favourite was the good old “you sure about that?”
    Now and again they’d ask it as a bluff, so you never knew for sure if they were serious or not

    I remember something my first DM did.

    Player: Ok. I’ll open the door.

    DM: You’re turning the doorknob?

    Player: Wait. Never mind. I’ll search first.

    DM: Too late. Which direction do you turn the doorknob?

    Player: Sweating. Um… clockwise?

    DM: And which hand do you turn the doorknob with?

    Player: Ri-… Left.

    DM: And do you push or pull the door?

    Player: Push…

    DM: The door swings open.

    The entire table was dead silent for a full 30 seconds. Nothing ever happened. Or if it did, we never made the connection to the door.

    That DM was a joker. Lol.
