The Talking Centipede
 

A man goes into a pet shop and asks the shop keeper for a new pet. "I don't want a cat or a dog I want something different!" Specifies the man. The shop keeper informs him that they have some talking centipedes for $50. Happy with that the man buys his new pet and carefully takes it home in a match box.

When he gets home he carefully opens the matchbox, looks down at the centipede and says, "Hello Mr. Centipede, would you like to go down the bar for a drink?" The centipede says nothing. Assuming it must be tired from the trip from the pet shop he thinks "I'll give it half an hour then ask it again". 30 Mins later he again goes to the centipede and says "Hello Mr. Centipede, would you like to go down to the bar for a drink?" Again the centipede says nothing.

The man then thinks to himself "Ok, I'll give it another 30 mins and if it doesn't talk to me then I'm taking it back!" 30 Mins later the man goes to the centipede and loudly says "Hello Mr. Centipede, would you like to go down to the bar for a drink?" The Centipede shouted back "I heard you the first time idiot! I'm putting my shoes on!"
