There's this great story. A writer tried to claim the cost of all the books he bought during the year as 'work - related research'. But when the tax inspector looked closer, they found out that half of those books were mystery novels and science - fiction. The writer tried to argue that they could inspire his writing, but it was still really funny how he thought he could get away with it. Reading for pleasure isn't the same as work - related research.
A young entrepreneur who ran an online business from home tried to claim his entire grocery bill as a business expense. He said that since he worked from home, all the food he ate was fuel for his work. He even included things like ice cream and junk food.

Sure. There was a man who thought that his gym membership should be tax - deductible because he said he needed to stay fit for his job. He worked in an office!

There was this conference call where two people had the same name. When the moderator called on one of them, both started talking at the same time. It was chaos for a moment. Then they started joking about being 'twin voices' on the call. They even made up a little skit about it right there on the call, which had everyone laughing. It was a great break from the usual serious tone of the call.
Well, I know a story about a Boston Terrier named Lucy. Lucy had a habit of trying to fit into the smallest spaces. One time, she saw a box that was clearly too small for her. But she didn't care. She tried to squeeze in and got stuck halfway. Her legs were flailing in the air and her little face was all scrunched up. It took her owner a while to gently pull her out, all the while laughing at her silly attempt.
Sure. There was this one time when a prankster among the crew managed to put a fake shark fin on the side of the carrier while they were in port. When the other sailors saw it in the morning, they were quite startled at first, thinking there was a real shark nearby.

Well, I know a story. There was a computer enthusiast who was building his own PC. He was so excited that he forgot to put the thermal paste on the CPU before installing the cooler. When he turned on the PC, it overheated within minutes. He was so confused at first, but then when he realized his mistake, he had a good laugh at himself. It was a valuable lesson for him in the process of building PCs.
A church once had a Palm Sunday celebration where they had a live donkey for the procession. The donkey was a bit skittish. As they were walking along, a dog ran out and barked at the donkey. The donkey got so startled that it ran in circles, knocking over a couple of the palm - waving children. Fortunately, no one was hurt and it turned into a very funny memory for everyone involved. There was a lot of laughter and the rest of the day was filled with people sharing the story and having a good time.
Sure. There was this one chef who was showing off his knife skills. He was slicing tomatoes super fast, but then he got too confident. He ended up slicing his apron strings instead of a tomato. His apron just fell off right in the middle of the kitchen, and everyone burst out laughing.

Miraculously, they were so startled by his sudden appearance that they all ran away in different directions.
