Ah well, I guess it doesn't really matter...

Re: The Joke Thread

OoHhh That hurts!

A drunk man who smelled like beer
sat down on a subway next to a priest.
The man's tie was stained, his face
was plastered with red lipstick,
and a half-empty bottle of gin was sticking
out of his torn coat pocket. He opened his
newspaper and began reading.

After a few minutes the man
turned to the priest sitting across from him
and asked, 'Father, what causes arthritis?'

The priest replies, 'My Son, it's
caused by loose living, being with
cheap, wicked women, too much
alcohol, contempt for your fellow man,
sleeping around with prostitutes
and lack of a bath.'

The drunk muttered in response,
'Well, I'll be doggone'
Then returned to
his paper.

The priest, thinking about what
he had said, nudged the man's knee
and apologized. 'I'm very sorry.
I didn't mean to come on so strong.
How long have you had arthritis?'

The drunk answered, 'I don't have it, Father.
I was just reading here
that the Pope does.'



MORAL: Make sure you understand the question before offering the
answer.

Re: The Joke Thread

This morning I was in luck and was able to buy two cartons of "COOPERS PALE ALE" cheap at the local bottle shop.

I placed the cartons on the front seat and headed back home. I stopped at a service station where a drop-dead gorgeous blonde in a short skirt was filling up her car at the next pump.

She glanced at the two cartons of beer, leaned over and leaned in my passenger window, and said in a sexy swedish accent, "Nice vehicle, but I'm a big believer in barter, handsome. Would you be interested in trading sex for beer?" ...

I thought for a few seconds and asked, "What kind of beer 'ya got?"


She should learn to barter with an Aussie..

Coops.

Re: The Joke Thread

If drinking and driving is illegal, then why do bars have parking lots?

Re: The Joke Thread

The Barber

A Guy stuck his head into a barbershop and asked, 'How long before I can get a haircut?
The barber looked around the shop full of customers and said, 'About 2 hours.'

The guy left.

A few days later, the same guy stuck his head in the door and asked, 'How long before I can get a haircut?'

The barber looked around at the shop and said, 'About 3 hours.'

The guy left.

A week later, the same guy stuck his head in the shop and asked, 'How long before I can get a haircut?'

The barber looked around the shop and said, 'About an hour and a half' .

The guy left.

The barber turned to his friend and said, 'Hey, Bob, do me a favour , follow him and see where he goes. He keeps asking how long he has to wait for a haircut, but he never comes back.'

A little while later, Bob returned to the shop, laughing hysterically.

The barber asked, 'So, where does he go when he leaves?'

Bob looked up, wiped the tears from his eyes and said....

'Your house'

Well, translation is all about context, you know. Care to elaborate, or provide an illustration...?

Off the cuff, I'd say, 穴が違うよ! (ana ga chigau yo!)

Ah, just did a net search and found the joke that you probably are referring to. "Gama Su!" ain't it, I can tell you that.

Re: The Joke Thread

An elderly man in Oklahoma calls his son in New York and says, "I hate to ruin your day son, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are getting a divorce; 45 years of marriage... and that much misery is enough!" "Dad, what are you talking about?" the son yells. "We can't stand the sight of each other any longer," the old dad explained. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Hong Kong and tell her!". Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. "Like heck they're getting divorced," she shouts, "I'll take care of this." She calls her elderly father immediately, and screams at him, "You are not getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, you hear me?" she yelled as she hung up the phone.

The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. "Okay", he says, "it's all set. They're both coming for Christmas and paying their own air-fare."
