Shaggy dog story

A joke, usually long, with a silly premise, often involving talking animals. Named for a classic joke involving a lost shaggy dog. Punch line: "Not that shaggy!"

The joke ended with "and that goes for your cat, too!" Just another shaggy dog story.

At my elementary school, they frowned on navel-piercing until the principal had it done.
