I used to have a job at a calendar factory but I got the sack because I took a couple of days off.

(Nicked Borrowed, again. I’m not clever enough to make this stuff up.)

A 1980s CSE science examination question was 'Why are there three pins in a three pin plug?'

A pupil in the grammar school where I taught gave the following answer.

"One for watts, one for the volts, and one for the amps."

He subsequently went to Oxford University to read classics.

Been there, done that.
There was a post some time ago that mentioned Homer. I'm sat there trying to figure out what an ancient Greek poet has to do with model railways, then I thought,
'Doh!'

I have always found lorem ipsum sticks in the throat, even when it looks good.
