Here is a joke that my 8 year old twins found very funny...
Here is a joke that my 8 year old twins found very funny when I told them:
A man enters a craft chocolates shop and asks if they could make a chocolate model car for him.
“Sure, no problem”
“And can it look like the VW Beetle that my dad had?”
“Nice idea, no problem at all.”
“And can you make it so that the chocolate doors open and you can see the interior detailed in chocolate, like with a plastic model car? Same with the bonnet and trunk?”
“that will require some planning, but I think i can manage.”
“And i would like the wheels to roll, and if i turn the steering wheel then the wheels should turn as well?”
“Mmmh that is fiendishly difficult in chocolate, I will need to carefully plan and experiment…”
“And finally, can you make it so that the chocolate windows can move up and down when you turn the handles?”
“Man this is insanely difficult. But give me 3 weeks and i’ll try my best.”
Three weeks later the man returns and indeed there is a lovely chocolate VW Beetle model on display. The chocolatier proudly shows it in all its glorious details: interior, wheels, steering wheel, windows, everything works perfect, and after the demo he asks, “shall I put it in a nice gift box?”
“No need, I will just eat it here.”
