Such as: Dragon telling joke to another Dragon: How many Jhereg does it take to sharpen a sword? Three, one to sharpen the sword, and another to betray his House and murder the third. Jhereg telling joke to another Jhereg: How many Lyorn does it take to sharpen a sword? Two. The first has to remove it from the other's one's arse first. Majikjon Hmm... I'd say the first of these is definitely a #1, while the second may be a bit more of a #2. (No pun intended, here, really.)
