On Racism

[Pete44ru]

It seems everyone, these days, seems to be in such a hurry to scream "racism"................................


So, one day, a customer asked a clerk in which aisle he could find Polish sausage.

The clerk looked at him and said: "Are you Polish ? "

The customer (clearly offended) replied:

"Well, as it happens, 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 Bratwurst, would you ask me if I was German ? "
"Would you ask me if I was Jewish, if I had asked for kosher hotdogs ? - "Or, Mexican, if I had asked for Taco's ? "
"And, if I asked for some Irish whiskey, would you also ask me if I was Irish ? "

The clerk replied: " Well, no, I probably wouldn't ! "

With deep self-righteous indignation, the customer then said: "Well then, how come you asked me if I'm Polish, when I asked for Polish sausage ? "



The then clerk replied, "Because, Sir - this is Home Depot."

And Home Depot often has a Sausage+Bun Vendor in one of its entrances...

Now... Ask the Sausage Vendor if he has any Wiener Schnitzel....

Thank you, now I'll have a new one to tell my Polock ex brother in law when he comes over to shoot this weekend.

That was funny.

Now for the people who may not know it, but X-rays were discovered by a polish woman, Copernicus was polish, and the list goes on. We may be laughing at the jokes, but they have quietly been in the forefront of science for a very long time. Still, a funny joke is worth telling if it gives someone a good laugh to get through the day. I have Irish, English, Welsh, Cherokee, Scandinavian, and maybe some other parts to my background, and I love a good joke that pokes fun at stereotypes, because I know that they are not always true.

That was good for a laugh and it made me think of my Mom. I used to tease her with Polish jokes as that was her heritage and she was a very smart lady. She graduated from high school with honors at 16 yrs of age. Thanks for the laugh and the memory Pete.

Well, well, did you guys hear about the two Polish guys walking down the street?

When they reached the corner, there was a dog there, bent over, licking his "privates".

The one Polish guy said to the other, "Man! I wish I could do that!"

The other Polish guy says, " Yea, but don't you think you ought to pet him first." -----6


And then there's there's the one where......"How come there is no ice in Poland?"

Someone lost the recipe.


Or........how come birds fly upside down in Poland?

Because there's nothing worth ------g on.---6

Very funny, I first heard that one when I was stationed in south Georgia, but it was a Yankee joke! They expected me to be offended but I was laughing too hard.
