Pinocchio's Splinter Solution

"Pinocchio's Splinter Solution"

One day, Pinocchio and his girlfriend were in bed doing
what girls and wooden boys do. As they were cuddling
later, Pinocchio could tell that something was bothering
his girlfriend. So, he asked her, "What's the matter, baby?"

Pinocchio's girlfriend gave a big sigh and replied, "You're
probably the best guy I've ever met, but every time we make
love you give me splinters."

This remark bothered Pinocchio a great deal, so the next
day he went to seek some advice form his creator, Gepetto.
When Pinocchio arrived, Gepetto could tell something was
bothering Pinocchio, and asked him what was the matter.
Pinocchio revealed his dilemma to Gepetto.

Gepetto searched up and down for a solution. Eventually,
he suggested that sandpaper might be able to "smooth"
out Pinocchio's relationship with his girlfriend. Pinocchio
graciously thanked Gepetto and went on his way.

Gepetto had not heard from Pinocchio for a while and therefore
assumed that the sandpaper had solved all of Pinocchio's
problems. A couple weeks later, Gepetto was in town to have
some blades sharpened at the hardware store when he ran
into Pinocchio. When he saw Pinocchio buying all the packs
of sandpaper the store had in stock, Gepetto remarked, "So,
Pinocchio, things must be going pretty damn good with the
girls, eh?"

Pinocchio replied: "Girls? Who needs girls?!?!?!?!?!?!?"
