https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orson_Welles_Paul_Masson_advertisements Drunken out-takes The best-known series of out-takes consists of three takes for the "French champagne" advertisement. In the first, an off-screen voice yells "Action," but Welles does not react for eight full seconds. "Action Orson, please," the offscreen voice says after a pause. "He doesn't do anything?", asks Welles, referring to the actor holding the champagne bottle, seemingly unaware he himself was intended to act first. The second and third takes consist of Welles attempting his monologue, though his words are slurred: "Mwaaaah, the French... champagne has always been celebrated for its excellence. There is a California champagne by Paul Masson, inspired... by that same French excellence. It's fermented in the bottle, and like the best French champagnes, it's vintage-dated, so Paul Masson's superb... (interrupted)" Welles was interrupted by an offscreen voice shouting "Cut!" before finishing his lines. Throughout the takes, Welles appears to be having trouble remaining upright, clearly propping himself up on the table while tapping his fingers impatiently, and several of the extras are visibly struggling not to laugh.
The famous “Cow Tools” comic from “The Far Side” by Gary Larson. In it, a cow stands behind a table displaying four “tools.” While one tool looks like a crude hand saw, the uses of the other three tools is unknowable. One is a double-pronged stick and the other two are lumps of material; one with a handle and one without.

From the Simpsons fandom wiki: Guy Incognito is a man who is Homer's doppelganger, with the exception of a brown mustache. It is evident he has never met or heard of Homer Simpson, but his uncanny resemblance had gotten him into trouble. It is unknown where Guy lives, though his appearance and manner of speaking suggest he is an English foreigner and is well-off. uy Incognito had the misfortune to visit Moe's Tavern right after Homer had been banned from the establishment. Guy walked in and politely ordered a drink. His speech resembled a poor American imitation of a foreign accent, and he had the look of Homer Simpson in disguise with a fake mustache. Observant of Guy's uncanny similarity to Homer, and apparently not convinced by his awkward accent, Moe understandably addressed him as "Homer" and told him to leave. Guy asked, "Who is Homer?" and introduced himself as Guy Incognito. Now totally unconvinced by his name and persona, Moe and his customers beat Guy up and tossed him outside knocking him out cold. Homer happened to be walking by and was astounded to see his exact double, but was then quickly distracted by a dog with a puffy tail. Differences from Homer Guy Incognito has a mustache and is a snappier dresser than Homer is. His voice is identical to Homer's, and he speaks with a slow, labored English accent. Behind the Laughter Guy Incognito's name is a double play on words: "Guy" is a colloquial term for a person whose name isn't known, and "incognito", which literally means "unknown," is a term referring to a person who is in disguise to keep from being recognized. Consequently, when Guy introduces himself to Moe as "Guy Incognito", from Guy's resemblance to Homer, Moe quickly but incorrectly concludes that it's Homer trying to sneak back into the bar.

A cartoon speach bubble is coming from Mother's mouth, as if he is making the demand's from spindlypete's original post. David Strathairn ("Whistler") and River Phoenix ("Carl") are in the background.

Female agents, too, had instructions from German Intelligence Service. They were to use every means at their disposal to capture an American officer's attentions and learn through him the intentions of the tactical forces. According to the 418th CIC Detachment's Third Monthly CIC Report, "the seduction rate of American officers (was), from the German Intelligence Service's point of view, still at a alarmingly low state."
