I was sitting at a bar once and a piece of string bounced into the bar and up on a stool and ordered a beer. the barkeep said we don't serve alcohol to pieces of string and ordered it out of the bar and told it not to come back.

A few minutes later the string got an idea and asked a young lady walking down the street to do it a favor.
"Please pick me up and tie a big knot in one end of me" so she did. Then he asked "please take the short end and fray it out real good" so she did.
The string thanked her and bounced back into the bar, up on the same stool and ordered a beer.
the barkeep gave it a dark scowl and said "hey, aren't you that same piece of string I just kicked out of here?"
The string laughed and said, ...................... "I'm a frayed knot!"

Ba da bump. Sorry.
