Noah is going about his business one day, when suddenly god descends from the heavens in a clash of thunder!
N: Oh lord! What can I do for you on this beautiful day?
G: Noah, you are my most trusted servant. I want you to build me.... ANOTHER ARK!
N: Of course my lord! It will be done!
G:but... this time, instead of having one floor, I want an ark with 20 floors.
N: won't be a problem my lord. Do you want me to fill it with 2 of every animal like last time?
G:no. This time, I want you to fill it with fish.
N:fish?
G:Yes. In particular, carp.
N:er... right, so let me just clarify. You want me to build an ark.
G:Yes.
N:and you want it to have 20 floors?
G:That's correct.
N:And you want me to fill it with carp?
G:That's what I said.

"I'll have the little green squid with the hairy lip, please" says the man. "O.K." replies the waiter and calls out "Gervais!"
A little French chef appears with a large knife, the waiter instructs the chef to kill the little green squid with the hairy lip.
Gervais is just about to slice at the poor squid when he notices a tear running down its face. Gervais is touched, and admits that he hasn't the heart to kill the squid.
"Not to worry" says the waiter, and calls out "Hans!!" at which an enormous German bloke comes out of the kitchen. "Sir", says the waiter, "this is Hans, the dishwasher. Hans, kill that squid!"
The dishwasher wields a huge cleaver and is just about to bludgeon the little green squid with the hairy lip when it cringes back and gives a little cry.
"I am sorry sir, I just cannot kill the squid" Hans admits, his lower lip trembling.
