Read the story. Can you complete the last sentence of the story?
A pirate walks into a bar and sits down. The bartender notices that he has a peg leg, a hook for a hand, and a patch over one eye. The pirate orders a beer, and while he's pouring it the bartender asks "So what's the story with the leg?"
"Well it was many years ago," says the pirate. "I was walking on the deck of my ship and a rogue wave swept me overboard, and a shark swam up and bit my leg off! I swam ashore and was fitted with a peg leg that very night."
"That's terrible," says the bartender. "What about the hand?"
"Well it was the very next day," says the pirate. "I was walking on the deck of my ship and a rogue wave swept me overboard again, and a whale came up and bit my hand off! I swam ashore and was fitted with a hook that very night."
"Wow," says the bartender. "So what about the eye?"
"Well it was the very next day," says the pirate. "I was walking on the deck of my ship, and I was looking out for rogue waves, and a seagull flew over and shat right in my eye!"
"Oh man," says the bartender. "And that blinded you?"
"Well no," says the pirate."But ________________________________________."
