    One day, a kid goes home all bloody-faced. His mother asks him what had happened? He tells her a bully confronted him on the street and asked him for money. He refused. The bully began punching him in retaliation. “And he punched, and punched, and kicked nonstop”, says the boy in tears. At this point, the shook-up mother asks: “And did you at least punch him back?” “Well, mom,” the kid says, “I decided to punch him after his 10th punch, but the chicken @#%& stopped at the 10th punch and let go of me”…. GET IT???
