A Lady Walks Into A Grocery Store.
She says hello and looks around the place for five minutes. Finally she walks up to the owner and says,
'Good morning sir. I was wondering if you have any broccoli left.'
'Really sorry ma'am, we're fresh out of broccoli. We might have some more tomorrow.'
'Oh. I see.'
Despite this, she keeps standing there, looking mildly disappointed. After a few seconds she looks up to the shelves stocked with fresh fruit and vegetables and slowly walks past them, examining their contents but without picking anything up. After another five minutes she walks back up to the owner and says,
'Hello again. Are you really sure you don't have any broccoli?'
'Er...quite positive, ma'am. We just sold the last bag to the gentleman before you. I'm afraid we won't have any more until tomorrow. Could I interest you in some cauliflower?'
'Oh. No, thank you.'
Once again, she takes a good look around the store and walks around the various displays. Once again she asks the owner,
'You know, I could really use some broccoli.'
'Look ma'am, I don't want to sound rude but I don't really know how else to tell you. We're out of broccoli. We have lettuce, spinach, carrots - you name it, we have it. Just no broccoli. I'm sorry.'
'Oh. I see.' she goes again, but again she says there and keeps looking around at the displays.
After another five minutes, sure enough, she goes to the owner again and says,
'Are you absolutely sure you have no broccoli left?'
The owner lets out an exasperated huff and starts,
'Look lady, listen here. What do you get if you take the pine out of pineapple?'
Slightly puzzled, she answers, 'An apple?'
'Right. And what do you get if you take the water out of watermelon?'
'A melon!'
'Correct. Now what do you get if you take the fuck out of broccoli?'
She thinks about it for a moment, then says 'There's no fuck in broccoli!'
'THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FUCKIN TELL YOU!'
