Duck in a hardware store - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

(yeah, it's an oldie, but it's my favourite, and I'm new here)

A duck walks into a hardware store, waddles up to the counter, and says "Can I have a grape?"

The hardware guy says "No, sorry, we don't have any grapes here. This is a hardware store." and the duck waddles out.

Next day, same thing. The duck comes in, and says "Can I have a grape?"

The guy says "no, I told you yesterday. We don't sell grapes. We sell hardware".

This goes on for a couple more days, and the guy is totally sick of it. The next day, the duck comes in, and says "Can I have a grape?"

The guy loses it, and yells at the duck: "Listen, you stupid duck. We don't have any grapes here. We're a hardware store. We've never sold grapes, we never will. So help me, if you come in here one more time and ask for a grape, I'll nail your friggin' beak to this counter", and the duck leaves.

Next day, the duck comes in again. This time, though, it asks: "Can I have a nail?"

The shopkeeper is taken aback, and says "No, sorry, we've actually run out of nails just this morning."

The duck says "Good. Can I have a grape?"
