A very cranky old woman was arrested for shoplifting at a grocery store.
She gave everyone a hard time the store manager, the security guard, and even the officer who arrested her. She complained about everything.
When she appeared before the judge, he asked what she had stolen.
Judge:
“What did you steal from the store?”
Old Woman:
“Just a stupid can of peaches.”
Judge:
“Why did you steal it?”
Old Woman:
“I was hungry and forgot to bring any cash.”
Judge:
“How many peaches were in the can?”
Old Woman:
“Nine! But why do you care?”
The judge calmly replied:
Judge:
“Because I’m going to give you nine days in jail—one day for each peach.”
As the judge prepared to deliver his sentence, the woman’s long-suffering husband slowly raised his hand.
Judge:
“Yes, sir. What would you like to add?”
Husband:
“Your Honor, she also stole a can of peas.”
