VIGYORGÓ

Egyik nap az iskolában Mórickának és Sanyikának egy-egy tételt kellett megtanulnia, előbbinek a rókáról, utóbbinak a férfiról. Móricka egész este tévénézés helyett ezt tanulta.

Hát másnap Sanyika elkezdi a tételt mondani, és majdnem a végéhez ér, amikor a tanár felszólítja az alvó Mórickát:

– Miről mesél Sanyi?

Móricka álmából fölriadva:

– Nagy, vörös farka van, és egész éjjel tyúkokat kerget!

Joke

A State Government Employee sits in his office and out of boredom, decides to see what’s in his old filing cabinet. He pokes through the contents and comes across an old brass lamp. „This would look nice on my mantelpiece,“ he thinks, so he takes it home with him.

While polishing the lamp, a genie appears and grants him three wishes. „I wish for an ice cold diet Pepsi right now!“

Poof! A Pepsi appears before him on his desk, so he picks it up and

guzzles it all at once. Now that he can think more clearly, he states his second wish. „I wish to be on an island where beautiful nymphomaniacs reside.“

Poof! Suddenly he is on an island with gorgeous females eyeing him lustfully. He then tells the genie his third and last wish: „I wish I’d never have to work ever again.“ Poof! He’s back in his government office.

Correct answer to the test question: 4. suit (Králik Róbert)
