The Perfect Pet
Dec 22, 2015 13:40:50 #
A man goes into a pet shop and tells the owner he wants to buy a pet that can do everything. The shop owner suggests a faithful dog. The man replies, Come on, a dog? The owner says, How about a cat? The man replies, No way! A cat certainly cant do everything. I want a pet that can do everything! The shop owner thinks for a minute, then says, Ive got it! A centipede! The man says, A centipede? I cant imagine a centipede doing anything, but okay
Ill try a centipede.
He gets the centipede home and says to the centipede, Clean the kitchen. Thirty minutes later, he walks into the kitchen and its immaculate! All the dishes and silverware have been washed, dried, and put away. The counter-tops have been cleaned and the appliances are sparkling. Even the floor was waxed. Hes absolutely amazed. He says to the centipede, Go clean the living room. Twenty minutes later, he walks into the living room. The carpet has been vacuumed, the furniture cleaned and dusted and the pillows on the sofa plumped. It even watered the plants.
The man thinks to himself, This is the most amazing thing Ive ever seen. This really is a pet that can do everything! Next he says to the centipede, Run down to the corner and get me a newspaper. The centipede walks out the door. 10 minutes later no centipede. 20 minutes later no centipede. 30 minutes later no centipede. By this point the man is wondering whats going on. The centipede should have been back in a couple of minutes. 45 minutes later still no centipede!
He cant imagine what could have happened. Did the centipede run away? Did it get run over by a car? Where is that centipede? So he goes to the front door, opens it and theres the centipede sitting right outside. The man says, Hey! I sent you down to the corner store 45 minutes ago to get me a newspaper. Whats the matter?! The centipede says, Im goin! Im goin! Im just puttin on my shoes!
