Andre's Pet Peeve

It seems I'm banned from the bar again! I don't understand why Andre has such a short temper lately. What am I talking about? Well, I stopped by the Banana Bar to have a Brass Monkey, short and while I waited for it, I shared a couple of jokes with Andre.

"How do you stop an ape from charging? Take away its credit card. Where does a 600-pound gorilla sit? Anywhere it wants."

The next thing I know, Andre's got hold of my collar and is dragging me towards the door. Still gripping my collar, he opens the door with one foot, steps into the doorway, and pitches me out.

I was sitting there trying to figure out what had petted his peeve when the door opened and Andre came lumbering over with a glass in his hand. I was sure he was going to apologize, but instead, he poured the drink out, on my head! As he was walking back he said over his shoulder, "I'll put the drink on your tab; don't come back till Friday to pay it."
