Here it is:
Why is my egg the best, I hear you ask? Because only intelligent people can see it.

Hey, you stole my idea!
|
Woah, nice egg! Surely this is an egg fit for an emperor.
I think my car is the same way, too; idiots never seem to be able to see it. | |
Hey, you stole my idea! And the egg thing wasn't already stolen by half a dozen other people? ;-) Seriously though... yeah, sorry about that. I would have just commented on your post but you'd already provided an explanation there, and I didn't want the explanations to clash. | |
Meh, no problem, I just thought it was slightly funny that we just happened to both post invisable eggs at the same time.
| |
Hey, I think you forgot to post your egg, Crispy... I can't see it!
...hey! | |
Ahaha. It took a moment to sink in, but I got Leftley's joke. :p
| |
It was kinda the obvious joke to make, for anyone who knows that fable. :-) I think it was probably an unconscious part of the inspiration for this post, actually.
| |
Well, to which one of Leftley's jokes are you each refering? It looks to me like there are two...
1) The Emperor's New Clothes joke 2) His car must get hit/cut off a lot (which prompts him to think that idiots just can't see it) | |
I get all of Leftley's jokes, since we're identicle twins seperated at birth.
| |
If by "identical twins" you mean "completely different people" and by "at birth" you mean "by an ocean" that is exactly right!
| |
I meant the first one. In retrospect I'm not sure which one Zaole meant; I just assumed!
| |
Hehe, I meant the second. Now that I think about it, I don't understand the first one at all.
| |
Heh, I thought so (that you were refering to the second joke, while Crispy thought you meant the first)...
As for the first joke, it's a reference to a story called The Emperor's New Clothes, which can be read here... | |
