When you're writing a scene and it doesn't advance the plot, and it's not revealing anything new about the character, and it's thematically redundant to an earlier scene that did both of those things, but you just...keep...writing...it...anyway...

Oh, I never edit while I'm drafting. And if I do decide to cut something, if it's substantial enough (a full scene/sequence/chapter as opposed to just a line or two), I always save it in a separate document just in case. I just always get a kick out of knowing it's not great and will either need revision or excising while I'm literally still writing it, heh.
