One day Bill is on a walk, when he sees his new neighbor, John.

He greets him and they start getting to know each other.

"So what do you do for a living, John?"

"Well I'm a logic professor"

"What's that?"

"Instead of telling you, it would be easier if I showed you. Do you own a dog house?"

"Yes, I do"

"Well then logically I can assume you own a dog"

"I do"

"And logically, I can assume that you have kids"

"Why yes, I do"

"And logically, I can assume that you have a wife"

"Yeah, I do"

"That's what I do for a living"

"Wow!" Bill exclaimed.

They talked for a little longer before parting ways. Bill continued on his walk when he saw his other neighbor, Liam.

"Hey Liam! Did you meet our new neighbor, John?"

"No, I didn't"

"Well, he's a logic professor!"

"What's that?"

"Well, instead of telling you, it would be easier if I showed you. Do you own a dog house?"

"No"

"Well then you're a homosexual"
