now this one is all in the telling, so I am not sure how it will come across in type, but here goes nothing...
A man is out on a walk with his pet monkey. as he wanders around the block, he starts tongueing for a beer, and as his favourite watering hole is just around the next corner, he decides to stop in for a quick drink.
as he walks through the door, the barmaid calls out to him "hey John, you know theres no pets allowed in here!" to which John replies, "aww, c'mon, you know me, and I swear he will be on his BEST behaviour! if he plays up, i will leave straight away.."
the barmaid looks at him for a little longer, then replies "just this once John, and if he so much as looks at me the wrong way, you're out!"
so John goes to the bar, and sits down for his beer. He gets about one third of the way through his schooner, when the monkey goes berserk! it runs over all the tables, screeches in peoples faces, throws things around, and finally, jumps onto the pool table and swallows the 8 ball!
well, the barmaid goes off! but John is already out the door with his monkey in tow....
A few months later, John is out walking with the monkey once again...he has the same craving for a beer, and thinks 'ahh, its been a while, she will have calmed down, maybe even forgotten about it by now, i will go in for a quick beer'
as soon as he sticks his head through the door, the barmaid shakes her head and says "no way!! after what that monkey put us through last time, he is not coming back in here!"
John begs her "oh come on, i have been training him, he is really well behaved now, hasnt put a foot wrong...i swear, he will be ok, and if he screws up this time, you can ban me for life..."
the barmaid thinks for a bit, then reluctantly agrees... "ok, but if he does ANYTHING wrong this time, you will never drink in this bar again!"
John is sure that he has the monkey under control, so he walks in and sits on his favourite stool. But before he has even touched his beer, the monkey starts again... screeching, running around, it tips the beer nuts out, then goes out the back... The barmaid screams at the monkey, comes out to face John and says "THAT IS DISGUSTING!! do you know what that HORRID little thing just did?!?!?! it went out the back, got into the jar of pickled onions, pulled one out, put it into its bum, then ATE IT!!
John looks apologetically at everyone in the bar..... "oh no, I'm really sorry about that" he says..
"Ever since the 8 ball incident, he measures everything BEFORE he eats it!"
