Choke!
A curious child saw a small spray bottle that he liked. It was the perfect size for homemade potions. Unfortunately, it was still full. No problem, the child simply sprayed it around the house like air freshener until the bottle was empty. His parents came in. "Phew! What's that smell?" "It was in here before I sprayed it all." "Let me see. What is that? Oh, no wonder it stinks. That's the cleaner for the white erase board."

“Oh. You must mean paralyzed. You work at the computer so long, your fingers get paralyzed.“
“Oh. Yeah.”
