.how do u confuse a paddy
put 4 shovels in a corner
and tell him to take his pick

[gness]

I don't get this one...can someone explain please?....:-(

[Slapshot]

go get im G xx

[shoota]

'Pick' is both a tool and a choice...





But I think you knew really........x

[gness]

I don't understand why he can't just choose a shovel....I could.

[shoota]

Too much mulling addles one's noddle.

[gness]

True...though I haven't mulled since Tuesday......x

[shoota]

Does that mean I'm off the hook?

[gness]

Not yet.....♣

[TonyV]

Love it

[gness]

You understand it, TonyV?....I must be slow...... :-(

[shoota]

So, if you were told to take your pick you'd take a shovel?

Anarchist.

[cupid04]

Or stick him in a barrel and tell him to stand in the corner...

[gness]

Well...yes I am.....but I wouldn't take a shovel from four being offered because I have a perfectly good one of my own which I'd bring with me.......x

[BlackadderV]

gness, by your response you have just justified the joke.

[TonyV]

Ok Gness trying to explain
Paddy - an Irish man who normally does groundwork ie digging holes
4 shovels also for digging holes
Pick also for digging holes but not there
So when you ask Paddy take his pick it's not there

Won't be very funny now even if you understand explanation lol

[shoota]

.how do u confuse a paddy
tell her a joke about 4 shovels in a corner....

[gness]

Henry or the Irish man, Cupid?...☺

[scorpiojo]

I don't think you needed to explain it, Tony

[cupid04]

I always fluff jokes...was supposed to read...'How do you confuse an Irish man?' Answer...Stand him in a barrel and tell him to pee in the corner!

[gness]

Tony.....I think the eejit is the one asking him to dig a hole with a pick.... you can break up ground with a pick.....but you can't dig it....you'd need a spade or a shovel for that....and Paddy has four to choose from......
I suppose the one trying to dig a hole with the pick would be English?...♣
