Why is it that people ask for my two cents worth, and then only offer me a penny for my thoughts? That deal sucks!

More traditionally, perhaps a coffee table or end table, which, while they are often placed near chairs cannot rightly be said to have chairs. --SMQ

| You are so witty! Are you competing with me? Are you!? Or is it the other way around? Here are my two cents regarding belly-laughter . . . A fly flies into a bar. The fly asks the bartender: "Excuse me, where is the toilet?"

This time what the fly says is more important than what the bartender says. Or are you hinting at something?

I understand the joke to be that normally a patron would ask the bartender for a drink, and only later ask where the toilet was, because they wanted to use it. The fly, however, preferring excrement to beer as its refreshment of choice, asked directly for the toilet.

| You could, God forbid, develop speech impediment; but that does not necessarily mean that you are a fly. And here's yet another (a bit silly) joke of mine! An elephant (that reached its full size) enters a bar. The bartender asks him: - How did you get in?! - How do I get out?! - What? You don't like my establishment!? - Well, do you serve buckets of water or not!? And who is going to clean my gigantic excrement behind me!?

The fly would be happy to do so. See how 2 problems cancel into no problem at all?
