And because this is a joke thread (that is, a thread for us to share jokes in):
I saw my neighbor in the parking lot at Wal*Mart the other day. He was loading a huge box into his car.
“Whatcha got there, Stu?” I asked him (I call him “Stu,” even though he told me his name is Stuart. He also told me he doesn’t like being called Stuart, so I call him Stu. I tried calling him “Stewart” for a while, but he didn’t like that either. So “Stu” it is. But I digress).
“Oh, I just bought this ten-foot artificial tree in the Wal*Mart.” he answered.
“Huh.” I grunted. “That’s a pretty big tree. Are you going to put it up yourself?”
