Millipede Joke
A man who lives alone wants to buy himself something special
for Christmas. He saves his pennies and goes shopping. As
he's looking around the shops he sees a pet shop and decides
to go in to find himself a companion.
He walks up to the shopkeeper and asks him if he has any rare
and unusual pets. The shopkeeper replies yes and gets out an
African Millipede which is about a foot long. The shopkeeper
says
'We have this rare trained African Millipede'
The man laughs and says that that's impossible. Just at that
moment the telephone rings and the shopkeeper says 'Millipede
take that call'.
The Millipede runs over to the phone, picks up the receiver
and takes the call. He runs back with a message for the
shopkeeper.
'That's amazing' says the man 'I'll take it'.
The man walks home ten pounds lighter but pleased with his
new friend. When he gets home he closes the door and suddenly
the Millipede jumps up, takes off his coat and hangs it on
the door. The man sits down and the Millipede runs into the
cupboard gets the mans slippers and puts them on him and then
turns on the television. Just as the Millipede is about to
make a cup of tea the man realises he's run out of
cigarettes, so he asks the Millipede to pop down to the
shops and buy him some. So of goes the Millipede.
After half an hour there's no sign of the Millipede and
the man starts to get worried. After an hour all sorts of
things start going through his mind. Could the Millipede have
met a female Millipede and run off?. Has he been mugged?.
Will the natural resources on Earth run out before he dies?
Why is it no matter how many times you clean your bellybutton
there's always fluff in it.....
The man gets up and opens the doorway to the hall and
there is the Millipede. The man flies into a rage shouting
'Why haven't you got my fags yet?'
The Millipede replies in an annoyed tone 'Give me a chance
I'm putting my shoes on!'
