We may sometimes hear it said that when you are in a bad situation, the best thing to do is to pick the biggest and baddest person in the area and take them down. It establishes you as the leader or, at the very least, as somebody who is not going to put up with any nonsense.
Then again, there are also times when a little creativity is necessary in a bad situation. That is what we see in the following joke, and by the time we get to the punchline, you are going to be chuckling. Enjoy the funny.
Three bulls heard the rancher was bringing another bull onto the ranch.
First Bull: “I’ve been here five years. I’m not giving this new bull any of my 100 cows.”
Second Bull: “I’ve been here three years and have earned my right to 50 cows. I’m keeping all my cows.”
Third Bull: “I’ve only been here a year, and so far, you guys have only let me have 10 cows. I may not be as big as you fellows, but I’m keeping all 10 of my cows.”
Just then an 18-wheeler pulls up in the pasture carrying the biggest bull they’ve ever seen. At 4,700 pounds, each step he takes strains the steel ramp.
First Bull: “I think I can spare a few cows for our new friend.”
Second Bull: “I actually have too many cows to take care of. I can spare a few. I’m certainly not looking for an argument.”
They look over at the third bull and find him pawing the dirt, shaking his horns and snorting.
First Bull: “Son, don’t be foolish — let him have some of your cows and live to tell about it.”
Third Bull: “Nah, he can have all my cows. I’m just making sure he knows I’m a bull.”
