Ask the Magic 8-ball

classic geek humor

A geek is out walking on the company campus thinking through a tricky inheritance structure when he hears a voice saying "Pssst, dude!"

The geek looks around, seeing nobody, but hears the voice again, "Yo, down here!"

Looking down, the geek sees a frog at his feet. He looks around again, but he and the frog appear to be the only non-vegetable organisms in sight. Plants can't talk and when the impossible has been eliminated, what's left, however improbable, must be true.

"Yeah, that's right. I'm talking," says the frog. "That's because I'm not really a frog. I'm cursed until some hero kisses me and turns me back into the beautiful princess I really am."

The geek picks the frog up and smiles, then sticks it in his pocket and continues on his walk.

When he gets back to his workstation, he takes the frog out to put it in a drawer.

"C'mon dude, I'm for real," the frog protests. "You kiss me and I turn into a beautiful princess and become your girlfriend."

But the geek just smiles and shuts the drawer, then goes for coffee.

At the end of the day, the geek takes the frog home and puts it in a terrarium.

"Serious, man!" the frog yells at him. "Kiss me and I turn into a totally hot princess who will be all yours and do anything you want. What are you waiting for?"

The geek looks in at the frog, smiles, and replies, "I'm an engineer, and I don't have time for a girlfriend. But a talking frog's pretty cool."
