Guess who?

Re: The New Joke Thread

Most of us, and most likely all Americans, know the story of how George Armstrong Custer and the Seventh Cavalry were massacred at the Battle of the Little Bighorn. What many people don’t know is that Custer’s legend and reputation are in large measure due to the tireless work of his widow to protect, and indeed improve, his reputation and make him the larger-than-life hero he is popularly believed to be today.

There are many works of art that depict the Seventh Cavalry’s last stand in the face of overwhelming odds against them at the Little Bighorn. Among these famous art works is Custer’s Last Fight, a huge painting by Cassilly Adams which was later acquired and made famous by Anheiser-Busch Brewing Company when the distributed around 150,000 copies to saloons and taverns to advertise Budweiser beer.

However, there is a legend about a painting now forgotten by history which Libby Custer supposedly commissioned by a famous artist of the time that shows Custer’s last stand and, most significantly, his last thoughts as battle was joined with the Indians. As the story goes, she sought out the artist to specifically create a painting that showed what her heroic husband must have been thinking and feeling that fateful morning. It took the artist two years to create the painting, and when it was finally finished Mrs. Custer was not at all pleased.

The painting was oversized, and showed the artist’s interpretation of what the landscape in front of Custer and his soldiers looked like. In the center of the painting was a huge, steaming pile of feces above which appeared a glowing gold halo much like a saint or an angel would be wearing. Surrounding the steaming pile of excrement were hundreds of Indian couples, most of them naked, shown having sex in all sorts of positions and with great, bordering on clinical, detail.

Libby was horrified and furious. As she tore up the painting she screamed at the artist “How dare you create such a filthy, pornographic painting and associate it with my husband! I very clearly told you I expected something that showed what my heroic husband was thinking at the time he died in battle!”

The artist replied “Yes, ma’am, that is what you asked for and it is clearly what I have done. There is no doubt in my mind that your husband’s final thoughts were ‘Holy sh*t! Look at all those f%cking Indians!’”

Re: The New Joke Thread

I'll say it again, the ability to spell is far better than using spellcheck and being too stupid to catch your mistakes...

Re: The New Joke Thread

Ever stoic Admiral Nelson, when about to engage in battle with another ship, would tell the cabin steward " go down and fetch me, my red shirt"...after some years went by the cabin steward finally mustered up the courage to ask the good Admiral " what's it with red shirt ?" Nelson replied " should I get wounded, I don't want my crew to panic if they see blood flowing down my chest".....the cabin steward nodded in appreciation and understanding.....
Some time later Nelson encountered the French Fleet and told his cabin steward " go down and fetch me my brown pants".....
