This one's been around for decades, familiar to most electrical engineers, but still pretty clever:
The Sex life of an Electron
by Eddie Currents
One night when his charge was pretty high, Micro-Farad decided to seek
out a cute little coil to help him discharge. He picked up Milli-Amp and took
her for a ride in his Megacycle. They rode across the Wheatstone Bridge and
stopped by a Magnetic field with flowing currents and frolicked in the sine waves.
Micro-Farad, attracted by Millie-Amp's characteristic curves soon had her fully
charged and proceeded to excite her resistance to a minimum. He gently laid her
at ground potential, raised her frequency and lowered her reluctance. With a quick arc,
he pulled out his high voltage probe and inserted it in her socket, connecting them in parallel.
He slowly began short circuiting her resistance shunt while quickly raising her thermal
conductance level to mil-spec.
Fully excited, Milli- Amp mumbled "MHO...MHO...MHO". With his tube operating well into
class C, and her field vibrating with his current flow, a corona formed which instantly caused
her shunt to overheat just at the point when Micro-Farad rapidly discharged and drained
off every electron into her grid. They fluxed all night trying various connectors and sockets
until his magnet had a soft core and lost all of its field strength.
Afterwards, Milli-Amp tried self-induction and damaged her solenoids and with his battery fully
discharged, Micro-Farad was unable to excite his field. Not ready to be quiescent, they spent
the rest of the evening reversing polarity and blowing each other’s fuses.
