Old Nautical Joke


I'm afraid if a joke needs explaining then it's not terribly funny, but this is what I saw in an age where warning signs outnumber actual useful ones:

On a yacht tender, the rope which ties the dinghy to the boat, shore or any immovable object is called a "painter".    I saw the sign and the "rope" behind it running off to the house across the road, and my terribly mixed up mind immediately thought........ well it was mildly amusing to me....
