Angela Merkel arrives in Athens airport.
"Nationality?" asks the immigration officer.
"German," she replies.
"Occupation?"
"No, just here for a few days."

Very old and still not funny.

so why did you even bother posting. what a misery you are....your humour -by-pass op might be reversible, amazing what they can do these days

[maggiebee]

No wonder people are leaving this site with morons like you around bazwillrun. Thought this site was about free speech but apparently not if it doesn't suit your small mind.

Nice one daveygh. This is a JOKE section. Cant go along with bazwillrun comment, perhaps a humour-by-pass-op might be appropriate for him/her.

I have already heard this joke. My friend told it to me. Her Mum is German. Sometimes, people need to stop being so PC

I think baz's comment was aimed at maggie- but if it was, I don't often find jokes on here funny but I enjoyed maggie's earlier tonight

[maggiebee]

Thanks FF.

[daveygh]

well i hadn't heard it and i thought it was quite funny, didn't mean to start a row :-(

A Greek and Italian were sitting in a Starbuck's one day discussing who had the superior culture.

Over triple lattes, the Greek guy says, "well, we have the Parthenon."

Arching his eyebrows, the Italian replies, "we have the Coliseum."

The Greek retorts, "we Greeks gave birth to advanced mathematics - and international finance too."

The Italian, nodding agreement, says, "but we built the Roman Empire and how to go seriously into debt."

And so on and so on until the Greek comes up with what he thinks will end the discussion. With a flourish of finality he says, "we invented sex!"

The Italian thinks for a couple of seconds and replies quietly, "that is true, but it was the Italians who introduced it to Angela Merkel!"
