A pregnant woman took a young man to court after catching him laughing at her repeatedly on the bus.
At the trial, the judge looked at the young man sternly.
“Why on earth were you laughing at this woman?”
The young man tried to keep a straight face.
“I’m sorry, Your Honor. I really am. But every time she changed seats, she somehow ended up sitting directly beneath a different bus advertisement!”
The judge frowned.
“And what exactly was so funny about that?”
The young man took a deep breath.
“Well… her first seat was under a gum advertisement that said:
‘THE TWINS ARE COMING!’
The courtroom went quiet.
“Then she moved to another seat,” he continued.
“This time, right underneath an ointment ad:
‘REDUCES SWELLING.’
The judge raised an eyebrow.
“But she moved again,” the young man said.
“And that’s when she sat underneath a deodorant advertisement that read:
‘BIG STICK GETS RESULTS.’
A few people in the courtroom started snickering.
The judge cleared his throat.
“And then?”
The young man shook his head.
“That was the final straw, Your Honor. She moved one more time… and sat directly under a tire advertisement.”
The judge sighed.
“What did it say?”
The young man tried desperately not to laugh.
‘GOODYEAR RUBBER COULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS SITUATION.’
The courtroom erupted in laughter.
The judge immediately banged his gavel.
“Case dismissed!”
Then he added…
“Next time, somebody put that woman on the window seat!”
