A man goes into a bar, takes a seat, and orders five shots.
The bartender gives him an odd look since he’s all by himself, but he serves up the five shots and lines them up on the bar.
The man downs them all quickly. He finishes the last one and calls out, “Four shots, please!”
The bartender serves up four shots and lines them on the bar.
The man downs them all. Then he belches loudly, sways slightly on the stool, and orders three. And one after the other, he knocks them back.
“Two shots!” he calls, and the bartender places two shots in front of him. Down they go. As the man slams the last one down on the bar, he says, “One shot bartender.”
So the bartender fills the glass. The man sits there, staring at it for a moment, trying to focus. Then he looks at the barman and says, “You know, it’s a funny thing, but the less I drink, the drunker I get.”
