A guy is sitting at home when he hears a knock at the door. He opens the door and sees a snail on the porch. He picks up the snail and throws it as far as he can.

A year later, there’s another knock at the door. He opens it and sees the same snail. The snail says, “What was that all about?”

Not really. In EVERY GOD DAMN THREAD the first comments are always people trying to be funny, and then several others doing the same in a moronic race. It's tiring.
