Call me crazy, but I think "Time flies like an arrow" or "Fruit flies like a banana" are more fun.

There are lots of homophonic puns and poetry in Chinese: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homophonic_puns_in_Mandarin_Chi...

One of the more extreme examples is a 92-character poem in which every syllable has the sound chi: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion-Eating_Poet_in_the_Stone_D...

And also of note to Hacker News, homophone characters are one way social media users evade Chinese keyword filters and censorship: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homophonic_puns_in_Mandarin_Chi...

I love this sentence, because unlike certain other constructed examples of lexical ambiguity [1][2], it doesn't rely so heavily on the somewhat artificial removal of punctuation.

It's also one of my favorite demonstrations of how absurd the English language can be. Another good one is "ghoti"[3].
