What bug broke skyrim for you?

This was both annoying AND funny.
Starting a new game I watched the part on the cart with bored disinterest. I was looking around when what do I see? A bunny, running into the path of the cart in front.
CRASH!
The cart in front flips over. I watch helplessly as we plow into it, flipping over as well. I struggle for even one way for flip it back over, but with out the ability to control my character yet I am helpless.
Needless to say when I finally stopped laughing I restarted my game and from now on, I make it a habit to kill every rabbit I see on the side of the road. Call it community service.

The only glitch that's really buggered up for me so far was one of the 'find a dragon shout' missions, given to me by the Greybeards. You know, the one's where they just add a marker to your map so you can go get a new shout.
They sent me to one I'd already been to. I was attacked by a dragon on arrival, which promptly failed to burn up after death, then the wall was still chanting away and fizzing, yet there's was no shout for it to give.
I couldn't remove the quest or mark it as complete, so I couldn't get any new locations from the greybeards.
No problem though, I'll just add all shouts myself, using the console.
Currently, I'm more bothered by the massive amount of disappointment I'm feeling over the end of the main quest occurring around 20 hours sooner than I thought it was going to. Great game........shitty main quest.

Right now I'm experiencing that bloody Glowing Eyes bug every time I switch between first and third person view, and there's just no way to fix it. Opened up the console to sexchange, altered my face, transformed into a werewolf and back, nothing fixes it. Annoying as fuck.
During the Stormcloak quests when you have to hijack a cart with weapons and money in. It says "Report to Ralof", but when I try to do it he doesn't say anything about the quest and says the things npcs say when you talk to them but not in a dialogue tree. So now i cant finish the Stormcloak quests 
None so far. I did use the pc console to remove a bugged quest, but it wasn't a major issue.
Edit: Its not a bug, but it took me a while to figure out how to become Thane of Riften because it doesn't work quite the same way as the other Thane quests.

Well the Main Quest "Elder Knowledge" was broken for me, I could not progress as the Mage Guild librarian was missing the dialogue options he was supposed to have, completing the mage quest-line first apparently broke that... Could fix it with a console command though.
Didn't change my opinion on Bethesda or Skyrim though, both still great. To be honest I'm surprised it took 50 hours to run in to such a problem...

Occasionally items are left stuck in mid-air when I return to an area where fighting occured, like arrows just left vertically planted in the barriers at Riften. Sometimes it seems that basic bandits have three times as much armour rating as they should, if I hit someone thats wearing steel with a legendary ebony warhammer, with the perk to ignore 50% armour on, I expect not to spend two minutes fighting him.
Other than that I've had no bugs, certainly not any game breakers.

It's crashed a couple times, and I did once have one issue:
I started exploring some ruins, and got started on a quest to find the three pieces of blahblahblah's amulet. I got to the end, assassinated the health-sapping Draugr king (likeaboss.jpg), but couldn't loot his body. The quest marker pointed to him and everything.
My last save was a while back, too, so I just turned off the quest and went on my merry way, never knowing the mysterious powers of that arcane artifact.

Playing on PC and not a single glitch that was anything less than funny. I once shot an iron arrow at a dragon (the second one you kill as part of the story) only to have it embed itself in Delphine's back, that's about as bad as it got.
The UI is annoying, but I wouldn't class that as a glitch. Someone needs to mod in a better interface.Akisa said:
The only problem I have is that the game takes 20 minutes to start and it crashes 8 times a day, so I'm waiting for my new PC before I start to play Skyrim.
Only problem I had was I cleared out a cave and stashed all my stuff in to as I didn't have a house yet. Get a quest to clear the same cave of vampires and all my stuff was gone
For a while I couldn't join the companions but when I was running around Whiterun knifing people in the back (for the giggles) I killed some guy and then this quest started saying I had to go and speak to Farkas to get my first job, so it broke the game for about 20 hours. Aside from that it's just crashing to the desktop every so often when my computer doesn't feel up to it.
I have had only one bug that lessened the awesomeness of the game.
It was a quest that had broken, and the dungeon in which the goal of the quest resided was completely broken. You entered the cave, and there was an entirely broken scene. You could see through the walls, there was an unending army of cave bears, and you couldn't get out, because if you left you fell through the geometry for a while and ended up back where you started.
It's the quest in which you help some Orcish hermits regain their Orc shrine from a giant. All takes place in the rift.
