Making a story up to a group of kids, their parents listening. Basically loads of animals and a kind elephant came to help out with a problem and on the spot I cleverly called him "Ben the Elephant...Benepholent". Looked at the parents and smiled as if to say "witty or what?". Only witty or smart joke I've ever made and it went over their heads.
