You rotten guys would send a simple minded Boy Scout to go find a left handed Smoke Shifter, wouldn't you?

1 poor gal actually called the local tire shop to get her tires corrected (we told her that they were mounted up side down
) and to get a quote on a replacement wob-u-lator shaft (its the part that makes the car shake like it should), and she got laughed off the phone!

OOOhh, you're baaaaaad! I'd stick around and tell you tales about fooling one of my first girlfriends, telling her she destroyed the TV by unplugging it, etc......
.... but I have to run now. I'm looking for my metric Crescent wrench...

Those are some great jokes!! .
Years ago when my uncle was training to be a fireman, one of the things he had to do was learn all the details of how the truck's pumps work. One of the guys told him to find the 'Sloan' valve on the truck. He looked for hours and couldn't find it. Then he went into the bathroom and while peeing in the urinal, there he found it. Printed on top of the urinal flush valve was: 'Sloan Valve Co.'

Maybe I'd better pick that up, too. Sometimes I cut a board and it's too short, then even after I cut it two more times it's still too short. I can keep it next to the wire stretcher we use here at the powerhouse when we pull in new wire and cut it too short. 
I guess it's a standard on aircraft carriers to send a new guy for a buck of propwash. I heard of one Crew Chief of Machinist's Mate who actually made up a label and sent the victim back to guy who sent him, with an authentic looking gallon paint can of propwash...

metric adjustable

Don't laugh. I was in line at a Sears store and the person in front of me asked for a metric adjustable wrench. The clerk, without missing a beat, asked "what size". The customer said 250 and the clerk sold them one. Take a look, adjustable wrenches as sold by handle length, 8",10", 12" and they are also marked with the metric length. One good old joke gone down the tubes.
