This bloke walks into a petshop and asks the attendant for a pet that requires absolutely no looking after. After a few moments the attendant tells him that they have a talking Centipede that does'nt need any attention. The bloke looks at him and says,
"You're joking surely?" "Nope, its a fair dinkum talking Centipede, and you can have it for $50.00" The bloke forks out the $50.00 and takes the Centipede home in a little box. Later that evening he decides to go to the pub for a drink, leans over the Centipedes box and says,
"Im going to the pub, do you want to come?"
No answer. So he asks again, a little louder "Do you want to come?" Still no answer so he tries one more time and loudly says, "DO YOU WANT TO COME?"
A voice from the box says,
"No need to shout I heard you the first time, I'm just putting on my shoes"
