A duck walks into a bar and asks the barman: "Have you got any fish?"
Puzzled, the barman says: "No, sorry, I don't have any fish."
The duck leaves.
The next day, the duck comes back to the bar, and asks: "Have you got any fish?"
Annoyed, the barman says: "Look, I told you yesterday, I don't have any fish!"
The duck walks off.
The next day, the duck comes back, and asks: "Have you got any fish?"
The barman is very pissed off by this stage and says: "No, I haven't got any f**king fish." He grabs the duck by the throat. "NEXT TIME YOU COME IN HERE ASKING FOR FISH, I'M GONNA NAIL YOUR HEAD TO THE BLOODY WALL!!! CLEAR OFF!"
Unabashed, the duck walks off.
The next day, the duck comes back and asks the barman: "Have you got any nails?"
The barman, taken aback by the question, says: "No, I haven't got any nails."
"Good, have you got any fish?"
