Time to feed the Tigers. Two of them, in fact.
The zookeeper tosses two pieces of meat into the enclosure. The zookeeper makes sure they are not too close together, so that they can eat in peace.
However, today, the two Tigers decide to have a fight
The zookeeper is going crazy. He is pointing to both pieces of meat. But the Tigers are too engrossed in their fight
"There," shouts the zookeeper. "There's the food. There! There!"
However, fights need to run their course. Eventually they stop and look at each other.
"Why are we fighting?" asked Tiger 1. "We each have food."
"Oh," said Tiger 2. "I didn't notice. Maybe we should eat first."
".....and after that?" asked Tiger 1.
"We shall fight again," said Tiger 2. "After we have both eaten, you can die on an full stomach instead of an empty one."
"I'm going to eat," said Tiger 1.
They both stop and eat. They chew and enjoy, until they eventually finish.
"It's time to complete our fight," said Tiger 2.
"Why are we fighting?" asked Tiger 1.
"You stole my girlfriend," replied Tiger 2.
"Don't be silly," said Tiger 1. "I would know if I stole your girlfriend. I think you had a bad dream."
"Come to think of it," said Tiger 2, "I don't remember having a girlfriend for you to steal."
"So, why are we fighting again?" asked Tiger 1, again.
"Maybe bad dreams and a bit of hunger," replied Tiger 2. "Please forgive me."
"There is nothing to forgive," said Tiger 1. "Let's be friends."
"No worries," said Tiger 2. "What shall we do now?"
"I'm going to sleep again. Hopefully, we'll have better dreams on a full stomach."
Tiger 1 went back to his hut.
"How did that go?" asked a female Tiger voice
"Great," said Tiger 1. "I managed to convince him that you didn't exist. Those hypnotherapy lessons sure came in handy."
