While visiting a foreign country, a man was strolling down a bustling street when he came across a brothel. It was new to him as they didn’t have those kinds of establishments where he came from. Despite never having ventured inside one before, he found himself drawn to the idea and thought, “Why not give it a try?“
Upon entering, he was confronted with a peculiar sight: two doors stood before him, one labeled “first time” and the other “regular.“
Preferring honesty, he opted for the “first time” door. Behind it, he encountered yet another decision to make: two doors marked “under 6 inches” and “over 6 inches.“
True to his nature, he chose the “under 6 inches” door. But his journey wasn’t over yet. Ahead of him lay another pair of doors: one labeled “big spender” and the other “I have a few twenties.“
Remaining steadfast in his honesty, he selected the “I have a few twenties” door. And in an instant, he found himself back on the street, outside the brothel once more.
