A doctor and a lawyer are chatting at a party, just trying to relax.
But every five minutes, someone interrupts the doctor:
“Can you look at this rash?”
“My back’s been k.i.l.ling me…”
“Does this mole look weird?”
After an hour of free check-ups, the doctor sighs and asks the lawyer:
“How do you deal with people asking for free legal advice outside of work?”
The lawyer smirks:
“Simple. I give them advice… then I mail them a bill.”
The doctor blinks.
“You’re joking.”
“Not even a little.”
Inspired (and mildly vengeful), the doctor decides to try it.
The next day, he writes up bills for everyone who bugged him at the party.
As he heads to the mailbox to send them off…
He finds something already waiting for him.
A bill.
From the lawyer.
A mother of three and a lawyer are sitting next to each other on a flight.
A mother of three and a lawyer are sitting next to each other on a flight.
The lawyer insists they play a game where they ask each other questions.
If the mom doesn’t know the answer, she pays him $5. If he doesn’t know the answer, he owes her $500.
Intrigued, the mom agrees, thinking this will be quick. The lawyer asks the first question: “What’s the distance from the Earth to the moon?”
Without missing a beat, the mom pulls out $5 and hands it to him.
Now it’s her turn. She asks, “What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four legs?”
The lawyer, confident at first, spends the next hour Googling, emailing colleagues, and even searching the Library of Congress. But no answer.
Frustrated, he finally hands her $500.
She thanks him, takes the $500… and goes back to sleep.
The lawyer, still perplexed, wakes her up:
“Well, what’s the answer?!”
Without a word, the mom pulls out $5 from her purse and hands it to him. 😅
Moral of the story: Don’t mess with a mom who’s trying to nap. She’s always one step ahead!
