“The Centipede Joke:
This guy decides he wants to buy a pet. So he goes to a pet store. When he walks in, the pet store guy asked, “Can I help you?”
“I’d like to buy a pet,” he says.
The pet store guy says, “Well how about a dog?” “No, a dog’s too domestic.” “How about a cat?” “No, cats scare me.” “How about a bird?” “No, birds are too basic.” “How about a centipede?” he asks. “Yeah! That’d be sweet! A centipede would be great!”
So he brings his centipede home, and wants to find out what he can do. So he says, “Centipede, go clean my room.” Three minutes go by, and the centipede comes back: “All done.” “Wow! That was super fast!”
He then says, “Centipede, go cook me dinner.” Five minutes later, the centipede has a five-course meal prepared. “Wow, this is super good, this is delicious, this centipede is awesome! What else can he do?” So he thinks to himself, and says “Centipede, go get me groceries.” The centipede runs out the door, and five minutes go by, 10 minutes, an hour, two hours, five hours, and he starts to think, “Where’s my centipede? He does everything so fast, why is he not back?” Finally, eight hours later, the centipede walks in with his groceries.
“Centipede, what took you so long?” Centipede says, “I had to put on my shoes.””
