I remember the last Ren Faire I attended. It was a Sunday afternoon, things were shutting down and you could tell many of the people working it were pretty tired.

We were at one of the food vendors, when I overheard some guy telling one of the girls working the stand, "Hey, there's ice in this drink. I thought they didn't have ice back then."

The girl - in an extremely bored, sarcastic voice answered: "Good my lord, This is brought down from the mountain top by the mystic dwarves - I know not the magic they use to make these tiny frozen cubes. Now do you want the Coke, or not?"

Completely cracked me up!
