Always the priest jokes... Anyway, I thought I'd add a joke I read in another forum...

So, a Nun, a Rabbi, and a Shintoist priest walk into a bar run by a Taoist. There's a Buddhist playing the piano, accompanied by an Australian aborigine playing the didgeridoo, while a temple prostitute of Ishtar strips on the stage. An atheist, an agnostic, a Unitarian Universalist, and the Archbishop of Canterbury are playing poker. (The Archbishop is thinking of cashing out, the Unitarian just deals, the agnostic can't decide who's bluffing, and the atheist thinks he knows but can't believe it.) Suddenly the high priest of Quetzalcoatl bursts in and hides behind the bar, followed by Khufu, Ghandhi, and a Voodoo priestess. The king of Kumbi Saleh and Tenskwatawa run in and start looking for them. A Wiccan looks in the window and says "there's a Muslim outside who wants to be worked into this joke too, but he says he doesn't want to come in to a bar."

The sinking ship one I've heard many times, it's one of my favorite simple jokes along with my all time favorite joke ever "A man walks into a bar and says "Ouch!", but the bar joke Johnny told is priceless.

Those are both good. The one I have is pretty clean:
A man walks into a doctor's office. The doctor drones, "I have the results of your test, and I'm afraid you're going to die." The man asks, "How long do I have to live?". "Ten", replies the Doctor. "What the hell does that mean?!", the man demands. "Ten Years, Ten Months, Ten weeks, What?!"
The doctor replies, "Nine."

Picture the scene; A Doctor's office a half-naked man is standing handcuffed between two police men and is talking to a third.
The Doctor is lying backwards over his desk unconscious and badly beaten. The man says : "He told me I was diabetic and had to give up smoking, drinking and sex. Then he said "have a Merry Christmas". Well something just snapped!"

I could see that one in a movie.

That doctor was definatly asking for that and if the culprit gets arrested, charged and convicted, there is no justice.

That doctor one, for some reason, reminds me of another joke:

I don't swear, I don't drink and I don't smoke... Oh shit, I left my fags in the pub.

I didn't mean to offend anyone by that. I don't refer to homosexuals as "fags" either, but it is commonly used slang in the U.S., and I just happened to notice the coincidence. I have never smoked either, and I am a firm believer in the values of temperance. I am sorry if I insulted anyone in any way, and I ask for the forgiveness of anyone who was offended. In retrospect, it was rather rude of me, please accept my apologies. Embarassed

I would love to know how and why it came to be that "fags" came to mean "cigaretts" in the U.K. and "homosexual" in the U.S.A.

I'm sure you have nothing to worry about there, Cole.

I'm not sure it entirely answers your question, Ashton, but perhaps it will give a bit more background: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faggot

This just ocurred to me so it's probably wrong:, but fag in the British slang term may be short for faggot which the dictionary describes as "a bundle of small sticks or twigs bound together." which is burned in this case as fuel. So similar to a cigarette.
Though the reference to homosexuality in American culture is so far eluding me.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 31 Jul 2008 Posts: 1578

An excerpt from the Wikipedia entry should explain it well enough:

The word faggot has also been used in English since the late 16th Century to mean "old or unpleasant woman," and the modern use may well derive from this. Female terms, it should be noted, are often used with reference to homosexual or effeminate men (cf. nancy, sissy, queen). The application of the term to old women is possibly a shortening of the term "faggot-gatherer", applied in the 19th Century to people, especially older widows, who made a meagre living by gathering and selling firewood. It may also derive from the sense of "something awkward to be carried" (compare the use of the word "baggage" as a pejorative term for old people in general).

So "Santa Cruz" means to dress up as Father Christmas and go for a walk on Clappam Common ? Laughing

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 31 Jul 2008 Posts: 1578

I'm afraid you've totally lost me there.

Ah. Y'see, that's where you lost me, the Clappam Common thing. I live just outside London, and I've never heard that. I do believe it's actually Clapham, but still, not heard that before.
