Last parachute
« on: November 10, 2016, 04:34:13 PM »
A plane was about to crash and there were 4 passengers on board, but only 3 parachutes.

The 1st passenger said, "I am Steph Curry, the best NBA basketball player. The Warriors and my millions of fans need me, and I can't afford to die." So he took the 1st parachute and left the plane.

The 2nd passenger, Donald Trump, said, "I am the newly-elected U.S. President, and I will be the smartest President in American history, so my people don't want me to die." He took the 2nd parachute and jumped out of the plane.

The 3rd passenger, the Pope, said to the 4th passenger, a 10 year old schoolboy, "My son, I am old and don't have many years left, you have more years ahead of you so I will sacrifice my life and let you have the last parachute."

The little boy said, "That's okay, Your Holiness, there's a parachute left for both of us. America 's smartest President just took my schoolbag."

I used to tell a variation of that joke, with Prime Minister Thatcher, President Reagan, a priest, a hippie and the self-professed smartest man in the world(one of those perpetual college students who never worked a day in his life and had no common sense).  After Thatcher and Reagan go there are two parachutes and three people.  The smartest man in the world grabs one and jumps leaving one parachute.  The priest turns to the hippie and says, "  son I've made my peace with God, you take the last parachute and go".  Hippie turns to the priest, "that's cool dude, the smartest man in the world just jumped out of the plane with my backpack on".

Had it been HRC, she would have thrown everyone else out first leaving her with numerous parachutes, then posited, "What difference at this point does it make?"

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis
