Definitions can be immensely amusing. Consider the following definition of ‘Bed’ from Wikipedia:
A bed is a piece of furniture or location primarily used or intended for resting upon, but can serve other functions, such as providing a place for sexual intercourse and/or relaxing.
The “and/or” at the end blows me away. It is a masterful comment on the role sex plays in all our lives. No?
