an atheist was seated next to a little girl on an airplane.

an atheist was seated next to a little girl on an airplane. in the middle of reading her book, she turned to the stranger and asked "how did noah fit all the animals on the boat?"

the atheist, somewhat bewildered by the sudden question, replied. "well. i'm not the right person to ask that."

the child, still curious asked "why is that? do you not know too?"

the atheist, wanting to be honest replied:"well. i'm an atheist. which means i don't believe in god. so i don't think that happened at all"

the child thought about this, and then said "can i ask you another question?"
the atheist, starting to appreciate the childs curiosity, replied "of course. you can ask me anything"

the child asked "well, a horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff right? but a deer poops little pellets, a cow poops a flat patty, and a horse poops clumps. why is that?"

the atheist, surprised by the elaborate question, thought for a while and then replied:"well, i'm not exactly an expert, but different animals have different digestive systems, meaning food isn't processed the same way."

unsatisfied with the vague answer, the child asked:"but how are they different?"

the atheist, not having an answer, but still wanting to help replied:"well, i can't answer that right now, but there's many books on biology that can tell you that and more. you should ask for one when you next visit the library"

later, the little girl took the strangers advice and when she visited the library, asked for a book on biology. always remembering the strangers encouragement of her curiosity, she would continue to learn more about the world.

A guy walks into a tavern

As he walked up to the bar he noticed a twelve-inch man playing the piano, so he asked the bartender, "What's that all about?" The bartender told him he that would tell him later. So the guy asked the bartender for a drink. The bartender said, "Before you get your drink, you get to rub the magic beer bottle and make one wish." "Okay," said the guy. He went over to the magic beer bottle and rubbed it. Poof. Out came a genie. The genie, of course, said, "You have one wish." The guy thought about it and then wished for a million bucks. A cloud of smoke filled the room, and then both the genie and the guy disappeared. In a few minutes, the guy reappeared back in the bar with a million ducks all around him. The guy was astounded and said to the bartender, "Hey! I didn't want a million ducks." The bartender replied, "Do you think I wanted a Tesla Cybertruck?"

An owl and a squirrel are watching a farmer tending his fields.

The squirrel says nothing because squirrels can't talk. The owl then eats the squirrel because it's a bird of prey.

Man sits in a bar

He buys one beer, then another one, then some vodka, some more and more. His misery is his joy. He can't change a thing in his life, he rots here and it's entirely his own fault

I guess the joke is that almost this exact scenario happens to a lot of people in my country.
