So there is an elephant stuck in some quicksand

He yells for a help and a mouse comes to try and pull him out. The mouse pulls as hard as he can but the elephant won’t budge. The mouse then runs home to grab his corvette and goes back to pull the elephant out. Later that day, the mouse was stuck in some quicksand. He yells for help and the elephant is nearby. The elephant walks over the quicksand, drops his dick down over the mouse, and the mouse runs up it and is safe. Moral of the story: if you have a big dick, you don’t need a corvette.
