A drunk was proudly showing off his new apartment to a couple of his friends late one night. He led the way to his bedroom where there was a big brass gong.
"What's with that brass gong?" one of the guests asked.
"It's not a gong. It's a talking clock," the drunk replied.
"A talking clock? Seriously?" asked his astonished friend.
"Yup," replied the drunk.
"How's it work?" the friend asked, squinting at it.
"Watch," the drunk replied. He picked up the mallet, gave the gongan ear-shattering pound and stepped back. The three stood looking at
one another for a moment.
Suddenly, someone on the other side of the wall screamed, "You asshole! It's 3:15 in the morning!"
