From Planck’s Constant:

The Scorpion and the Frog

A Hezbollah scorpion and a Lebanese frog meet on the banks of the the Litani River, the longest river in Lebanon. The scorpion asks the frog to carry him across on its back.

The frog asks, “How do I know you won’t sting me?”

The scorpion replies, “Because if I do, I will die too.”

The frog is satisfied, and they set out, but in midstream, the scorpion stings the frog. The frog feels the onset of paralysis and starts to sink. Knowing they both will drown, he has just enough time to gasp “Why?”

Says the scorpion: “Welcome to the Middle East, Bitch!”
