Bloody Russians, can't tell their storks from their UASs

A black guy walks into a bar with a huge scarlet macaw🦜 on his shoulder.

The bartender, amazed by all of the colourful plumage said, “What incredible colour! Where on earth did you get that amazing animal?” The parrot replied, “In Africa. They're all over the place.”

Coat being fetched!

A man walks into a bar with his dog, but before they can take a seat, the bartender shakes his head and says,

“Sorry, buddy, no animals allowed.”

To everyone’s shock, the dog looks up and says, “Oh, come on! Can’t a guy get a drink without all this fuss?”

The bartender crosses his arms. “Nice try, pal. Another one of those ‘talking dog’ gimmicks, huh? Not buying it. Both of you need to go.”

“It’s not a trick, I promise!” the man protests. “Here, I’ll prove it—how about I step out for a bit? You can chat with my dog yourself.”

The man walks out, leaving the bartender alone with the dog.

“So, about that drink…” the dog says, tail wagging.

Stunned, the bartender blinks and mutters, “Okay… sure, on the house. But you know what? My wife works at the café next door, and she’d lose her mind if you walked in and ordered something. Here’s ten bucks—get yourself a coffee and keep the change.”

The dog grabs the money and trots off toward the café.

Ten minutes go by, and the dog hasn’t returned. Just as the man comes back, he asks, “Where’s my dog?”

The bartender, looking worried, says, “He went to the café, but he hasn’t come back yet.”

The two head out to find him. As they pass the alley between the bar and the café, they stop in their tracks—there’s the dog, cozying up with a fancy French poodle.

“Rover!” the man shouts. “What on earth are you doing? You’ve never behaved like this before!”

The dog turns his head nonchalantly and replies, “Hey, I’ve never had money before.”

A law professor in Germany once handed his students a case study that looked deceptively simple.

Two neighbours, the story went, were locked in a bitter dispute.

One owned a row of apple trees whose heavy branches stretched over the fence. Every autumn, ripe apples tumbled down—straight into the neighbor’s garden, crushing her delicate tulips.

The tulip owner demanded compensation for her ruined flowers. The apple grower insisted the apples were nature’s doing, not his fault.

The students dove in eagerly. Half of them argued passionately for the tulip owner, citing sections of property law, civil codes, and precedents.

The other half defended the orchard owner just as fiercely, pointing to natural law and ownership boundaries.

The exam papers came back thick with logic, references, and Latin phrases.

When the professor finally looked up from the stack, he didn’t smile or frown. He simply said:

“Apples fall in autumn,Tulips bloom in spring.”

The room fell silent.

A few students shifted in their seats. One began to raise a hand in protest, but the professor continued gently:

“Before you quote the law, use your eyes. Before you argue, use your mind. The law matters—but common sense comes first.”

And with that, he gathered the papers and left the room—having given them a lesson no textbook could ever teach.

Common Sense Prevails.
