Some infamous ones snatched from hearsay, others invented:

GGSE (8,4) - Scrambled Eggs. (duh)

Magical wooden spinster (8) - Mystique (Miss Teak. Huh? Huh?)

HIJKLMNO (5) - Water. (Because I said so.)

Hark! Sexual perversity (5,2,4,4) - Prick up your ears. (From The Times, people...)

Explanation without cause (2) - Be. (BECAUSE if it had a cause then it would be an explanation.)
