Because it’s Monday

    A restaurant owner was walking through his establishment one day when he walked into the kitchen. Yervais, the chef was looking a little bothered. When he asked him what was wrong he was told that the squid that had been delivered was of a green, hairy lip variety and he had a phobia about hairy lips and green squid and was a quivering wreck. Not wanting to force the issue he said he’d look at getting someone else to do the job.
    So he goes to the kitchen cleaner who was washing the dishes. He asked Hans would he do the job of cutting up the green squid with the hairy lips. Hans also declined as he said that he couldn’t bring himself to cut up such lovely creatures. He was now also a quivering wreck. So the owner did it himself.
    The owner came to a conclusion:

    Hans that does dishes is as soft as Yervais, with wild green hairy lip squid.

    I need chocolate…

    well, probably it’s my fault: I’m italian and my english is not so great or maybe, I’m italian and we have a different sense of humor but….. was it supposed to be funny?
    Honestly, I did not understand it…someone, please can explain it to a poor italian girl???

    And, is the green hairy lip squid a native variety of squid from Ireland??? We do not have green hairy lip squid in Italy, for what I know….
