Once, back when catalog orders were still placed on the phone, I made a call to order a sweater. It was a brown sweater, but as catalog makers are wont to do, they gave it a clever name.
Me: And I'd like one of style # 123456.
Guy on the other end: Which color?
Me: 'Bark'.
Guy: Woof! Woof!
Me: .............???.....
Guy: Hahahahahha! Phew. I've been waiting all day to do that.
That still makes me smile. The idea of this normal sounding dude just chuckling to himself in his little call-center cubicle.
It's always wise to find a way to make your day more pleasant, isn't it?

LOL!!! Just last night I was looking at an LL Bean Catalog and trying to figure out which name went with which color.
