I love the counterpose in this joke. Hope you enjoy it!
A blonde was on holidays in the depths of Cape York. She wanted desperately to take home a pair of genuine crocodile shoes but was very reluctant to pay the high prices the local vendors were asking for the highly prized shoes.
After becoming very frustrated with the “no haggle on prices” attitude of one of the shop keepers, the blonde shouted, “Well then, maybe I’ll just go out and catch my own crocodile, so I can get a pair of shoes at a decent price!”
The shopkeeper said with a sly, knowing smile, “Little lady, why don’t you just go and give it a try”.
The blonde turned on her heel and headed out toward the swamps and marshes, determined to catch herself a crocodile.
Later in the day, as the shopkeeper is driving home, he pulls over to the side of the swamp where he spots that same young woman standing waist deep in the murky water, shotgun in hand.
Just then, he spots a huge 15-foot croc swimming rapidly toward her.
With lightning speed, she takes aim, kills the creature and, with a great deal of effort, hauls it onto the slimy swamp bank. Lying nearby were several more of the dead creatures. The shopkeeper stands on the bank and watches this scenario in amazed silence.
Just then, the blonde struggles and flips the big croc on its back.
Then, rolling her eyes heavenward and screaming in great frustration, She shouts out, “Damn, this one is barefoot, too!”
