Some of these are combination of English and Japanese that I made up.
I asked a Japanese Christian if it's going to rain again tomorrow.
He said "Iiya, ashita wa zeppai Halleluja!" :D
Kid: Doushite yuuenchi o "teema paaku" (theme park) tte iuno?
father: Ikunoni sugoku tema ga kakaru kara dayo. :D

Right on. I used to study dajare all the time when I started learning Japanese, I have a book about them somewhere. A couple more:
(when getting a receipt at a store) reshito o moratte ure-shitto (ureshii)
naiyou wa nai yo-!
And here is a longer one, more of a riddle really. Its about Peko chan and Poko Chan, the two advertising mascots for milky candy.
Aru hi ni poko chan wa peko chan ni sakura no ki no shita ni kokkuhaku shite furimashita. Tsugi no hi ni, poko chan wa buddo no ki no shita ni kokkuhaku shitara OK deshita. Nande deshou ka?
(give everyone a long pause to think it over)
Ki ga kawatta kara!!!!
HAHAHAHAHHAHA!
