Jumping on the thread creep bandwagon,

I saw a little of the Two Ronnies many years ago when their show appeared on PBS stations here in the USA. One of my favorite bits went something like this (I've forgotten the exact words):

Ronnie Barker is standing there with a large (maybe 8.5" by 11", or perhaps a bit larger) replica of a postage stamp. He says something like "The [insert official name of the British postal authority] announced today that they were recalling this stamp because of a printing error. Can you see what's wrong?" He then waits for a couple of beats, and then says "That's right! It's too big to put on an envelope!"

Great stuff!
