Racism

Subject: RACISM




Everyone seems to be in such a hurry to scream 'racism' these days.

I saw a customer ask, "In what aisle could I find the Irish sausage?"

The clerk asks, "Are you Irish?"
The guy, clearly offended, says, "Yes I am. But let me ask you something.
If I had asked for Italian sausage, would you ask me if I was Italian?
Or if I had asked for German Bratwurst, would you ask me if I was German?
Or if I asked for a kosher hot dog would you ask me if I was Jewish?
Or if I had asked for a Taco, would you ask if I was Mexican?
Or if I asked for Polish sausage, would you ask if I was Polish?"
The clerk says, "No, I probably wouldn't."
The guy says, "Well then, because I asked for Irish sausage, why did you ask me if I'm Irish?"
The clerk replied, "Er....Because you're in Halfords!"

I know some pretty funny racist jokes. They don't always demonize any race as a joke is a joke. I can't tell them here because to the politically correct the joke has to be a slam on whatever minority is in it and disregards the fact that humor can be found in nearly everything. Some humor is quite dark but we can still laugh at it even when we cringe.

Oh yes "Gallows Humour" or "Noir Humour" is a necessary valve/outlet
But in most events,"Treat others as you would wish to be treated".

Most of us do treat others as we would like to be treated Zhu but we can also laugh at ourselves. It's such a shame that more people don't as then there wouldn't be offence taken at things like there is now.

daisya, get the fat ones, slice down the middle, remove the skin and place on a George Foreman grill at 155 for 12 minutes (turning once) then serve on buttered brown bread with broon sauce. :D
