"A Snake and a Rabbit" joke
A snake and a rabbit were racing along a pair of intersecting forest pathways
one day, when they collided at the intersection. They immediately began to argue
with one another as to who was at fault for the mishap. When the snake remarked
that he had been blind since birth, and thus should be given additional leeway,
the rabbit said that he, too, had been blind since birth.
The two animals then forgot about the collision and began commiserating
concerning the problems of being blind. The snake said that his greatest regret
was the loss of his identity. He had never been able to see his reflection in
the water, and for that reason did not know exactly what he looked like, or even
what he was. The rabbit declared that he had the same problem.
Seeing a way that they could help each other, the rabbit proposed that one feel
the other from head to toe, and then try to describe what the other animal was.
The snake agreed, and started by winding himself around the rabbit. After a few
moments, he announced, "You have got very soft, fuzzy fur, long ears, big rear
feet, and a little fuzzy ball for a tail. I think that you must be a bunny
rabbit!"
The rabbit was much relieved to find his identity, and proceeded to return the
favour to the snake. After feeling about the snake's body for a few minutes, he
asserted, "Well, you are scaly, you are slimy, you have got beady little eyes,
you squirm and slither all the time, and you have got a forked tongue. I think
you are a lawyer!"
Not enough votes...
