The Asparagus Joke

A homeless woman walks into the produce department at the neighborhood grocery store.

An employee says, "May I help you, ma'am?"

And she says, "Yes, please, I'm looking for asparagus".

The clerk says, "I'm sorry, we don't have any asparagus; it's out of season right now."

The woman says, "Thank you". And she leaves the store.

The next day, the clerk sees that same homeless woman browsing the produce department.

He approaches the woman and asks, "May I help you, madam?".

The woman says, "Yes, I'm looking for asparagus".

The clerk chuckles, "No ... I'm sorry", he says, "but we don't have any asparagus; it's out of season right now."

The woman says, "Thank you". And she leaves the store.

For the third consecutive day, this homeless woman is looking around the produce department.

Irritated now, the clerk walks up and says, "Ma'am, may I help you?".

And she says, "Yes, please, I'd like to buy some asparagus".

The clerk says, "Can you spell, Ma'am?".

Insulted, woman says, "Yes, I can spell ... just because I'm dirty and homeless doesn't mean I'm stupid, you know".

The clerk says, "Can you spell, Tom, as in tomato?"

And she replies, "T-O-M".

The clerk says, "Can you spell, Pot, as in potato?"

And she replies, "P-O-T".

The clerk says, "Can you spell, Fuck, as in asparagus?"

Confused now, the woman says, "But there's no 'Fuck' in asparagus".

The clerk says, "That's what I've been trying to tell you, lady".
