第81章 会玩乐器的章鱼

This guy walks into a bar near a concert hall with an octopus under his arm and says,“I'll bet any of you that my octopus can play any instrument that you give him。”

Two guys bet fifty dollars each that the octopus can't play their instruments。The first guy hands over his French horn and is the octopus starts to play it。The second guy hands over his tuba and is sure enough the octopus starts to play it。The bartender then walks into the back room and comes back five minutes later with a set of bagpipes and bets all the money in the drawer that the octopus wouldn't be able to play it。He hands over the bagpipes to the octopus and waits。After about a minute of watching the octopus run its tentacles over the bagpipe the owner of the octopus says,“Come on now!Play it!”

The octopus replies,“What do you mean play it?!If I can figure out how to get the plaid pajamas off,I'm gonna screw it!”

一个人走进了音乐厅附近的一个酒吧,他胳膊下夹着一只章鱼,对其他人说:“我和你们所有人打赌,随便你给这章鱼什么乐器,它都能演奏。”

有两个人各赌50美元,章鱼不会演奏他们的乐器。第一个人递过来他的法国号,章鱼演奏了起来。第二个人递过来他的大号,当然,章鱼再次演奏了起来。酒吧服务员走进了里屋,5分钟后,他拿出来了一套风笛,赌抽屉里的所有钱章鱼不会演奏风笛。他把风笛递给章鱼,等着它演奏。看到章鱼用它的触角在风笛上划来划去,大概1分钟过后,它的主人说:“快点!演奏啊!”

章鱼答道:“什么叫演奏啊?!如果我能把这方格子睡衣扒掉,我就拧它!”
