Some of you have already seen some of these. The leaflet advertising of WD-40 lubricant from the 1960's. Loaded with double entender when it was first marketed. Now it says:

“You only need two things in life: Duct Tape and WD-40. If it moves and shouldn’t, use Duct Tape, if it doesn’t move and should, use WD-40.”

Even if that WD-40 ad is pretty cool, it is likely a hoax. See for instance:

Any way, it is hilarious. Therefore thanks for presenting it!

This sentence reminds me the similar one about two reasons of failures in electronics - there is a contact where it should not be or there is no contact where it should be. something like that.

What a nice oversimplification. That's like when people say "software should be easy, it's just ones and zeros, one or the other, what's so complicated"
