Two guys walking down the sidewalk. Bob says to Pete, "Hey, that looks
like a dog turd."
Pete agrees, picks up the object, and smells it before remarking, "Smells
like a dog turd too," and offers it to Bob to take a whiff.
Instead, Bob takes his finger and scrapes off a bit and puts it in his
mouth, "Tastes like one too."
Then Pete says, "Yep, that's a dog turd alright. Sure am glad we didn't
step in it."
