Message in a bottle

What short phrase, or single word, would make for a funny 'message in a bottle' if you found it on the beach?
If not 'funny', then 'intriguing'.

"Tell them about the spoons."

"Hi!"

Ok.
What 10 songs do you want?

"Tell them about the spoons."

That's certainly 'intriguing' to the point of 'baffling'...unless I just don't geddit?

"Please send more bottles"

"Please send more bottles"

Or if they wanted fewer bottles, "recycle this"

Neither do I! It was a phrase a friend heard being shouted during a drunken street fight, that has intrigued her ever since.

Shush! Listen! The Badgers!

These strange phrases certainly stick in the memory. I once saw a drunken and/or mad man staring in at diners (who all studiously ignored him) in a restaurant, and we shouted at them "you call yourselves pedestrians?"
I wonder what he meant?

I've never met you, but f**k you anyway.

"Send more ships. The last one didn't fit."

Please ignore the previous message.

"I'm ok, how are you?"

"Damn. The place is full of Australians. Send more beer. Signed, Captain James Cook."
