Me a Buffoon? Look Who's Eating With 1 Chopstick

"Grandpa,
what is the
sound of
one hand
clapping?"
"Oh young
grasshopper
...you ask as
a wise one
indeed. Did
you see how
I threw in
the 'indeed'?
Well, let me
answer your
question with another question. If 2 hands clap each other,
then the sound is 'Pak!". If you have one hand clapping
your Grandpa's face, then the sound is 'Wak!' But if you
have one hand clapping the air, then the sound is 'Wooosh'.
It is not so subtle a difference actually."
"Sorry, old Ilocano monkey. You are a buffoon? I'm sorry,
that shouldn't have been a question."
