Ask the Donkey

The town square was crowded for market day.

Then, all of a sudden, Nasruddin came galloping through the square on his donkey. It looked like he was about to fall off, barely holding onto the reins with one hand while struggling to keep his turban on with the other.

Nobody had ever seen Nasruddin or his donkey move this fast!

"Hey there, Nasruddin!" yelled one of his friends as Nasruddin rode by. "Just where are you going in such a hurry?"

Nasruddin shouted a reply as the donkey galloped past. "I honestly don't know! You need to ask the donkey!"

Alright listen up, dummy! So, Nasruddin is hauling ass on his donkey, right? Someone asks him where he's going, and he says, "Don't ask me, ask the donkey!" Get it? The joke is that Nasruddin is supposedly in control, but he's acting like the donkey is the one calling the shots. It's funny because usually, the rider is in charge, not the animal. And you, like Nasruddin, probably aren't in charge either.
