kiss-kiss-kiss. E.g at the end of a letter or email.
I once received this e-mail from a posh girl's school:
"An e-mail addressed to you has been blocked by 'PornControl', due to its obscene content. The offending content was 'xxx'."
It turned out that my friend had signed off with, "See you soon, Jenny. xxx"
(a) 'PornControl' (not its real name) was set not to protect the girls from the wicked outside world, but to protect the outside world from the obscene girls.
(b) If it detected an obscenity in an e-mail, it kept the e-mail and just sent the obscenity.
(c) There's nothing wrong with typing 'xxx'
Don't ya just love it?

Jeans, made by the company started by Levi Strauss. Originally hard-wearing work trousers made for gold-rush prospectors, the label shows two horses unable to tear the legs of a pair apart.
That's probably quite true cos two horses, who know each other, won't pull very hard when they each know that they're only tied to their friend. This was a good trick to make it appear that anything was very strong. Tie one horse to a pair of Levi's, and tied the other leg to a tree, then watch the bastards rip!
Anybody want to buy my old Levi's? You could easily sew them back together.

First there was C. In C, 'C++' meant 'C+1', so then there was language called C++.
Some clever dick wanted a name like (C++)++ and noticed that there were 4 +s hidden in a '#' character. So C#.
Trouble is, Brits and Americans say the thing differently so they decided you must forget 'hash', 'pound', 'number' and say 'C-sharp'
Is C# a complete rip-off of Java? (Yes)
