After he finishes eating, he pulls out a gun and shoots it in the air. The bartender is surprised and asks the panda why he did that. The panda pulls out a dictionary and points to the entry on "panda", which reads: "Panda: a large black and white bear-like mammal native to China. Eats shoots and leaves."

Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation is a non-fiction book written by Lynne Truss, the former host of BBC Radio 4's Cutting a Dash programme. In the book, published in 2003, Truss bemoans the state of punctuation in the United Kingdom and the United States and describes how rules are being relaxed in today's society. Her goal is to remind readers of the importance of punctuation in the English language by mixing humour and instruction.

The next day a squirrel walks into the bar and orders a fruit salad. After he finishes eating he begins masturbating vigorously. The bartender is outraged and asks the squirrel what he thinks he's doing. In response the squirrel pulls out a dictionary and points to the entry on "squirrel", which reads: "Squirrel: a small rodent that lives in trees. Eats fruit and nuts."

Exactly the right reference. Thank you. Moreover the plural of leaf is leaves. And of course if Toronto leaves the playoffs NHL in the early rounds they’ll once again be the Maple Loafs.

Version i heard: a girl meets this realy cool panda in a bar and they hit it off. They swap phone numbers and agree to go out one day. She never hears from him so eventually calls the panda, and asks if he'd like to come over for dinner -she'd cook.
The panda comes round to hers and they have a great time. He's charming and funny, and really flirty. After the meal he makes a move, and 10 minutes later theyre naked, and getting freaky. They both cum, and as she rolls off him expecting to cuddle, the panda is up and heading for the door.
she phones her best friend and tells her about this wonderful panda she met who just wanted her for sex. Thats pandas for you, the friends says. EATS, SHOOTS AND LEAVES..

A guy is driving around the back woods of Montana and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: 'Talking Dog For Sale.'
He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.
The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador Retriever sitting there.
"You talk?" he asks.
"Yep" the Lab replies.
After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says, "So, what's your story?"
The Lab looks up and says, "Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA. In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping, I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running... but the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals. I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired."
The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.
"Ten dollars" the guy says.
"Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on Earth are you selling him so cheap?"
"Because he's a fucking liar. He's never been out of the yard."

The following day, a wombat enters the bar and orders a chicken parmigiana. After he finishes eating, he looks around and sees a beautiful woman. He wanders over and whispers a few words in her ear.
Next thing the bartender knows, the wombat is making sweet sweet love to the woman, right there in the bar!!
Shocked, the bartender demands to know what's going on!!
The wombat pulls out a dictionary and points to the entry for wombat. Eats roots and leaves.
