Fred came home from University in tears. “Mum, am I adopted?” he asked.
“No of course not,” replied his mother. “Why would you think such a thing?”
Fred showed her his genealogy DNA test results. No match for any of his relatives, and strong matches for a family who lived on the other side of the city.
Perturbed, his mother called her husband. “Honey, Fred has done a DNA test, and… and… I don’t know how to say this… he may not be our son.”
“Well, obviously!”
She gasped. “What do you mean?”
“It was your idea in the first place! You remember, that first night in the hospital when the baby did nothing but scream and cry and scream and cry. On and on. And you asked me to change him. I picked a good one I reckon. Ever so proud of Fred.”
A man dials the pantry and shouts into the phone
A man joins a big corporate empire as a trainee. On his very first day of work, he dials the pantry and shouts into the phone, “Get me a coffee, quickly!”
The voice from the other side responded, “You fool you’ve dialed the wrong extension! Do you know who you’re talking to, dumbo?”
“No,” replied the trainee.
“It’s the CEO of the company, you fool!”
The trainee shouts back, “And do you know who YOU are talking to, you fool?!”
…
..
.
“No,” replied the CEO indignantly.
“Good!” replied the trainee, and puts down the phone.
