A bear and a rabbit are conscripted into the army, and waiting for their medical checkup.
The rabbit says to the bear, “listen, I really don't want to go to war. Can you just kick me in the leg, so that when I go in to see the doctor I've got a limp?”
The bear says “sure. But can you do the same for me when you come out? I don't want to fight either.”
The rabbit agrees and the bear kicks him in the leg. It's a good kick— the rabbit only just manages to keep himself from falling over or crying out— and when he goes into the doctor's office he is, indeed, noticeably limping. The doc takes one look at him and says “nope, the army can't use you. Not with that leg” and sends him home.
When the rabbit comes out, he returns the favour and kicks the bear in the leg.
Unfortunately, however, the bear is a bear and the rabbit is a rabbit— the kick doesn't even hurt. The rabbit tries kicking him again, harder. Tries punching him, biting him, even hitting him with one of the waiting room chairs.
By the time the bear gets called in for his check up, the rabbit has spent a good ten or fifteen minutes beating him up all over, and the most he's managed to do is give him a light nosebleed. Sadly, the bear thanks him for doing what he could, and heads in to see the doctor.
The doc takes one look at him and says “nope, the army can't use you.”
The bear, thrilled but surprised says “what? Because I've got a bloody nose?”
And the doc says “no. Because that nurse over there says she just saw you get your ass handed to you by a limping rabbit.”
