Nasruddin and the Sieve

Nasruddin was in the pantry when a sieve full of potatoes fell on his head. The sieve and potatoes hit him right on the head, and it really hurt.
Nasruddin was angry and went to kick the sieve, but when he did that, the sieve bounced up and hit him in the face.
Now Nasruddin was furious. He ran into the kitchen and grabbed his biggest butcher knife. Then he ran back into the pantry and shouted, "Alright, sieve! I'm ready! You and all your sieve allies can attack me know and I'll cut you to shreds with my knife!"


Inspired by The Wit and Wisdom of Nasraddin Hodja by Nejat Muallimoglu
