Laughing out loud
The pot
Nasrudin borrowed a pot from his friend. The next day, he gave the friend back the pot, plus another smaller pot.
The friend looked at the small pot, and said, Whats that?
Your pot gave birth while I had it, said Nasrudin, so I am giving you its child.
The friend, happy to receive the bonus, did not ask another question.
A week later, Nasrudin once again borrowed the original pot from the friend. After a week passed, the friend asked Nasrudin to return it.
I cant, said Nasrudin.
Why not? the friend asked.
Well, Nasrudin answered, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your pot has died.
What? the friend asked with skepticism. A pot cant die!
Well, you believed it gave birth, said Nasrudin, so is why is it that you cant believe it died?

Too hot, too cold
Nasrudin was listening to a group of people in the midst of a scholarly discussion. One sage remarked, People are so unreasonable-they complain of cold in the winter, and of heat in the summer. Is there nothing that can satisfy people?
Well, replied Nasrudin, what about fall and spring?
