Boss: *Yelling* “Johnny, get to my office immediately!”
Johnny: “Right away, sir!”

Johnny: “Absolutely, sir! The customer is always right.”
Boss: “Then what was the disagreement about?”
Johnny: “He called my boss an idiot and said he was foolish, sir!”

A Teacher Discusses Biology with Her Class.
In a classroom filled with eager third graders, a teacher is sharing insights about biology. She mentions that humans are unique among animals for their ability to stutter.
From the back of the room, a young girl raises her hand enthusiastically and interjects,
“Actually ma’am, I once had a cat that stuttered!”
Recognizing the value of such anecdotes, the teacher encourages her to elaborate.
The girl stands up confidently and recounts,
“We owned this large tabby cat who loved teasing our neighbor’s Rottweiler. One day that Rottweiler managed to escape and jumped over our fence.” The story continues as she explains,
“My cat started saying fff, fff, fff; but before she could finish her sentence with ‘bang,’ the Rottweiler gobbled her up.”
