Joke of the day

[kevgibbo]

Five Englishmen in an Audi Quattro arrived at an Irish border checkpoint.
Paddy the officer stops them and tells them: "It is illegal to put 5 people in a Quattro, Quattro means four"
"Quattro is just the name of the automobile," the Englishman retorts disbelievingly "Look at the papers: this car is designed to carry five persons.""
You cannot pull that one on me," replies Paddy "Quattro means four. You have five people in your car and you are therefore breaking the law.
"The Englishmen replies angrily, "You idiot! Call your supervisor over I want to speak to someone with more intelligence!"
"Sorry," responds Paddy, "Murphy is busy with 2 guys in a Fiat Uno."

I'm not very happy with this racisism. I get the feeling us Irish folk are being toggled with here. Hmmm.......

[mondine]

Well, yes. There's no need to insult an entire nationality for the sake of a joke.
Whether or not it's meant 'just in fun', it may not be regarded that way by a lot of people that are reading an international forum.

[GroundPounderUSMC]

Well, as much as I agree. I have to say, I was only kidding. But, Mondine is right. This being an international forum, someone is bound to become angered at someone else's "sense of humor" for not everyone has the same mind set.

I'm Irish but it's still funny...No need to get all butt hurt over a joke.

[mondine]

Congratulations on your election as the National Spokesperson. You can imagine my relief at your reassurance that no one was offended.

Hey, the point is, that there is no need to pick out a nationality to be the brunt of a joke. It just brings out the worst in petty regionalism.

And yes, some people are offended. Whether or not you tell them how they should react.

Here's a good one:

There are two guys that hav been deer hunting interstate. they are both irish (nobody get offended). They shoot six deer. Upon arrival at the airport, the manager tells them that the plane (one of those small ones)cannot carry six deer as they are too heavy. "Thats ridiculous! We got six deer last year and we carried them on no problems!" one of the irish guys says.

After extensive arguing, the manager allows thw two Irish guys to go on with the deer. After the plane is in flight for an hour, it crashes due to the weight. The two Irish guys are the only survivours. "where do you suppose we are,Gary?" one of them says to the other.
"oh, round about where we crashed last year paddy!" comes the reply!

Again, nationality makes absolutely no difference to the 'joke'. So, what is the point in mentioning one?
