Not moi, but I do have the first paragraph of a recent CA case that I thought was hilarious:

Cautionary tales rarely have happy endings. From the 19th Century German classic, "The Dreadful Story of Pauline and the Matches," in which the fate of the child heroine can be deduced from the title, to the more familiar Thirties cult film, "Reefer Madness," the protagonist almost never does well in them. This case is no exception. We present here a cautionary tale, published, like all of its ilk, in the hope of providing a warning.

[Engle v. Copenbarger and Copenbarger (Nov. 2007)]

The subject matter was actually a bit dry, but the intro was a gem, imo.
