One day, an attorney decided to stop by a bar for a refreshing Martini. Little did he know that this visit would lead to an encounter with a peculiar old drunk. This scruffy-looking man was hunched over, mumbling to himself, and deeply engrossed in examining something in his hand.

Intrigued by the old drunk’s actions, the attorney leaned in closer, trying to catch a glimpse of what had captured the man’s attention. The drunkard held up a tiny object to the light, his words slurring as he spoke, “Well, it looks like plastic.”

As the old man continued to study the object, he rolled it between his fingers and remarked, “But it feels like rubber.” This description only fueled the attorney’s curiosity, and he couldn’t resist asking, “What do you have there?”

Looking up, the old drunk replied with a puzzled expression, “I don’t know. It looks like plastic, feels like rubber, but I can’t figure out what it is.” Sensing an opportunity to solve the mystery, the attorney offered, “Let me take a look.”

With a slightly hesitant handover, the old drunk passed the object to the attorney. The lawyer carefully rolled it between his thumb and fingers, examining it closely. Curiosity got the better of him, and he even went as far as sniffing and licking it. After a thorough investigation, he confessed, “Yeah, it does look like plastic and feel like rubber. It doesn’t have a significant smell or taste. I’m stumped. Where did you find it?”

To the attorney’s utter surprise, the old drunk grinned mischievously and replied, “I found it… in my nose!”
