Territorial

“The sign did warn you not to stand so close to the cage,” I pointed out.

“How was I supposed to know what the sign said, it was in German!” Frank complained.

“Well, the picture of the lion with stuff shooting out of its butt might have been a clue,” I said.

“I thought it just meant that lions were flatulent,” Frank said as he stood there dripping. “Ugh! How am I ever gonna get the smell out?”

“On the bright side, at least this means no other lions will come near you,” I said. “You’re pretty clearly that one’s territory now.”

“Oh, very funny. Very, very funny.”
