John was a salesman's delight when it came to any kind of
unusual gimmick. One day, John came home early with a new
robot . . not just an ordinary robot, but a Lie Detector. He
told his wife that it had to charge 4 or 5 hours and he could
show her how it works.
At 6 PM, Tommy, their 11 year old son, came in from school,
nearly 3 hours late - both parents were understandably angry.
'Where have you been? Why are you so late?', they both
asked.
'Several of us went to the library to work on an extra credit
project,' said Tommy.
The Robot walked around the table and slapped Tommy, knocking
him completely out of his chair.
'Son, this robot is a lie detector, now tell us where you
went after school.'
'We went to Bobby's house and watched a movie.' No reaction
from the robot, so they continued..
'What did you watch?', asked Marsha.
'The Ten Commandments.'
The Robot went around to Tommy and once again slapped him,
knocking him off his chair. With lip quivering, Tommy got up,
sat down and said, 'I am sorry I lied.
We really watched a tape called Sex Queen.'
'I'm ashamed of you, son,' said John. 'When I was your age,
I never lied to my parents, never tried to see dirty pictures
much less dirty movies, told dirty jokes, or even misbehaved.'
The robot walked around to John and delivered a roundhouse
right that not only knocked him out of his chair, but out the
back door and half way across the patio.
When he came back inside, Marsha was bent double laughing,
almost in tears. 'Boy, did you ever ask for that one! And you
can't be too mad with Tommy. After all, he is your son!'
The Robot immediately walked around to Marsha and literally
slapped the piss out of her.
