The one that really got me was in Police Squad when he offers a cigarette to a woman and says "Cigarette?" and her response is "Yes I know" and she looks away.
It took me hours of thinking that one through to eventually get the joke - there are some really great jokes in Police Squad.
[edit - I incorrectly originally said the response was "Yes"]

OK, here we go with a big hint: "Is this ...?"

So the joke is he says "Cigarette?" meaning "Do you want a cigarette?" - however what she hears is "Is this a cigarette?" hence her reply of "Yes I know".
(Not "yes" as I previously wrongly wrote...)

Not sure of my favorite, but these are damn good:
Mimi: "Is this some kind of bust?"
Frank: "Yes, ma'am, it's very impressive, but we need to ask you a few questions." And
We're sorry to bother you at such a time like this, Mrs. Twice. We would have come earlier, but your husband wasn't dead then.

I think my altime favourites are the Samantha jokes from I'm sorry I haven't a clue on Radio4
“Samantha has to nip out now with her new gentleman friend. Apparently, they've been working on the restoration of an old chest of drawers. Samantha is in charge of polishing, while he scrapes the varnish and wax off next to her."

Yes, I know it was simple, but I wanted to be festive with it... 
You are up tomorrow!
I'd suggest that we make tomorrow the last for the year, and restart with the victor on 2nd January? Make sense to people - if not, let's agree a date.

I happened to look at the screenshots of Unity editor. It looked so "Java" [^]
It reminds me of some old Linux-GUI, or even the old Java based GUI tools. Things look fat & blunt. May be it's because they have a common cross-platform tool (like Java?) for their UI?
Visual Studio/.net UI controls - perfect!. I'm even okay with the plain Win32/MFC ones.

It is GTK via MonoDevelop... Shows the ongoing problem of one UI to rule them all...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I don't agree, Blender has a beautiful UI, and it is consistent across platforms — can't say for Apple, because I don't own any.
blender.org - Home of the Blender project - Free and Open 3D Creation Software
Of course, GTK etc. is a lot confusing and not sure why people invest in these frameworks for building a powerful engine, provided the resources and tools available today.

The problem still there - Blender's UI is for Blemder only...

True — but why would I want Blender's UI in, let's say, VirtualBox environment? My point was: Unity is a huge company, earning a lot, they do not need to depend so much on these free and open source tools. Or at least, they can start investing some and making these UI better.
Microsoft is coming up with XAML Standard. That is set to solve these resource problems, but I cannot say anything for certain.
