Someone here posted a couple of days ago that liberals need to learn not to count their chickens too soon

Well, my chickens are doing just fine

The Jizz Slinger
A king, wanting to host an elaborate wedding for his daughter, raised taxes on all citizens of the kingdom by thirty pieces of gold. Everybody paid, except for one young count.

The king sent a tax collector, but the count refused. “This is unfair, and I shall not pay!”

The king sent the sheriff, but the count refused. “I will not support the king’s new tax!”

Finally, the king had the count arrested, and thrown in the dungeon. He explained to the count that failure to pay was treason, and he would be executed, yet still, the count refused.

So, the king had him brought to the top of the tower, and neck on the block, with the executioner’s axe raised. The king asked the count to pay. He defiantly shouted, “Never!”

Then, as the executioner’s axe began to fall, the count shouted “OK! I’ll pay!”. But it was too late, the executioner couldn’t stop the heavy axe, and the count was killed.

The moral of this story? Don’t hatchet your counts before they chicken.
