Suicide book

A man goes to a library and asks for a book on suicide.

Librarian stares at him for a while , then asks:

Who's gonna bring it back?



I liked this librarian:) What do you think is he/she a pessimist or cares only the book?

A similar thing happened to a man whose job was to record the financial transactions of his employer's business.  The librarian thought it was a bad idea to loan books to a bookkeeper.

Jerry

I don't know she owns cats or not, but I imagine how a woman with spectacles and with serious face ask:

Who's gonna bring it back?

By the way do you notice your two last comments in my discussions are about cats.

Loved the joke

Since it is a library, maybe they shouldn't have bought it ???

In a very cynical way, she is also asking if the man is, in fact, going to kill himself. Maybe she cares a little about him too.

Fantastic joke! :)

I guess it would be the librarian's job to ensure that the book would be returned.


Leyla, your joke and Jerry, your comment about the cats have both made me smile and laugh... a great way to start my day.


Thank you Leyla and Jerry...
