Mulla the Rooster

Written story
One day, Mulla was at the bathhouse. A group of young guys decided to prank him. They had each smuggled an egg inside. They turned to Mulla and said, "We're going to play a game. We're all going to cluck and lay an egg. Whoever can't do it has to pay the bathhouse tab for everyone!" Suddenly, the guys started clucking, and one by one, they produced an egg. Mulla puffed out his chest and started crowing at the top of his lungs: "Cock-a-doodle-doo!" The guys stared at him. "What was that? You were supposed to be a hen!" Mulla smirked. "With a flock of hens this big, you need at least one rooster!"
