Re: The Funniest Canadian Joke.
He just doesn't find low brow racial/ethnic jokes to be very funny
Their is nothing ethnic nor racial about that joke fyron. It was taken from a tv show called this hour has 22 minutes. It is a joke. Not as harsh as some of the other country to country jokes being tossesed here. And the context of the joke was based on the apology that the Member of Parament did not issue for saying that 'all americans are bastards'. And she still gets to keep her job. Which is not right. If she had said all french are bastards she would have had to resign. So take it as it is. And nothing more. |

At work we had a training class for a new software program. The instructor was from Canada. After talking with him I discovered that he had never had the breakfast food: "Biscuits and Gravy".
I was wondering if other Canadians or other people out there have never had this before either? KirbyEF P.S. I found this humorous, but it is not a joke... [ April 05, 2003, 21:31: Message edited by: KirbyEF ] |

Re: The Funniest Canadian Joke.
A Programmer and an Engineer were sitting next to each other on an airplane. The Programmer leans over to the Engineer and asks if he wants to play a fun game. The Engineer just wants to sleep so he politely declines, turns away and tries to sleep. The Programmer persists and explains that it's a real easy game. He explains,"I ask a question and if you don't know the answer you pay me $5. Then you ask a question and if I don't know the answer I'll pay you $5." Again the Engineer politely declines and tries to sleep.
The Programmer, now somewhat agitated, says, "O.K., if you don't know the answer you pay me $5 and if I don't know the answer I pay you $50!" Now, that got the Engineer's attention, so he agrees to the game. The Programmer asks the first question, "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?" Then Engineer doesn't say a word and just hands the Programmer $5. Now, its the Engineer's turn. He asks the Programmer,"What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down on four?" The Programmer looks at him with a puzzled look, takes out his laptop computer, looks through all his references and after about an hour wakes the Engineer and hands the Engineer $50. The Engineer politely takes the $50 turns away and tries to return to sleep. The Programmer, a little miffed, asks, "Well what's the answer to the question?" Without a word, the Engineer reaches into his wallet, hands $5 to the Programmer, turns away and returns to sleep. |

Re: The Funniest Canadian Joke.
One for TC
Three Canadians and a Genie Three guys, a Newfie, a Quebecer and an Albertan are out walking along the beach together one day. They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it. "I will give you each one wish, that's three wishes total," says the Genie. The Newfie says, "I am a fisherman, my Dad's a fisherman, his Dad was a fisherman and my son will be one too. I want all the oceans full of fish for all eternity." With a blink of the Genie's eye, POOF! the oceans were teaming with fish. The Quebecer was amazed, so he said, "I want a wall around Quebec, so that nothing will get in for all eternity." Again, with a blink of the Genie's eye, POOF! there was a huge wall around Quebec. The Albertan asks, "I'm very curious. Please tell me more about this wall." The Genie explains, "Well, it's about 150 feet high, 50 feet thick and nothing can get in or out." The Albertan says, "Fill it up with water." For Fyron On the sixth day God turned to the Archangel Gabriel and said: "Today I am going to create a land called Canada. It will be land of outstanding natural beauty. It shall have tall majestic mountains full of mountain goats, and eagles, beautiful sparkling lakes bountiful with bass and trout, forests full of elk and moose, high cliffs over-looking sandy beaches with an abundance of sea life, and rivers stocked with salmon." God continued, "I shall make the land rich in oil so as to make the inhabitants prosper, I shall call these inhabitants Canadians, and they shall be known as the most friendly people on Earth." "But Lord," asked Gabriel "don't you think you are being too generous to these Canadians?" "Not really," replied God. "Just wait and see the neighbors I'm going to give them."

Re: The Funniest Canadian Joke.
he he... this is for the boys in toques
http://www.post-gazette.com/sports/o...8perfectp5.asp And a TRUE Story called THE REFRESHING TALE OF THE GOD OF BEER. ANCIENT CANADA-- The Canadian obsession with drinking beer is not just a cultural phenomena, it is an act of faith. Canadians have a long history with the malted liquor, starting with their early worship of the gods of beer. Barbarian Canadians first learned the secret of beer--it is told--when the sky opened up thousands of years ago and a great golden figure came down upon the earth bringing a holy recipe for making a refreshing beverage made up of only three simple Earthly ingredients (barley, malt, hops) that could be mixed with fresh springwater. All who saw the beer God began to suffer intense headaches and a strange dizziness that made their straw sleeping mats appear to spin, before eventually forcing them into unconsiousness. When the primitive Canadians awoke, their mouths tasted like the *** of a yak, but they now had brewing knowledge. The ancestral Canucks then began to brew their own beers in wooden cauldrons made from hollowed-out maple tree stumps, and then stored the finished product in vessels sewn from dried caribou skins. The first drinking Canadians would consume the draught from the carved-out horn of a ram. But because a horn has no base, they were obliged to drink it all at once or clutch their horn to their stomach--to prevent others from stealing it. This ritual continues to this day, where at parties around the country young men will either down their drink in one "chug-a-lug" gulp or else, if there is no need to impress, they will hold their bottles close to their bodies as they discuss whether Marshall McLuhan or Mackenzie King was the better goalie. Archaeological digs near Montreal have found some of the oldest depictions of the ancient gods of beer that Canadians revered as providers of the amber nectar. The images, scratched onto the top of a petrified picnic table, show Mohl-Sun, the god of fermented spirits, raising a bottle to the sky and either yelling, cheering, or toasting in some fashion. "You can tell He's really whooping it up," said Andre Pelletier, chief archaeologist at the site, which is close to present-day McGill University. "From the angle of his knees I'd say he's already drunk a two-four, or maybe just a case. A half-sack at least. He's almost falling backwards." "Myths describe Mohl-Sun as a wise and caring god," said Andre. "Mohl-Sun's Canadians looked up to him for wisdom, and sanctuary, a means to escape from the everyday pressures of life. They honoured their god in the time-honoured fashion of belly-patting and belching in respect." Mohl-Sun is thought to be the inspiration behind the famous beerhenge monument, a large circular structure in Old Montreal made up of hundreds of thousands of piled-up empties. "It just looks like a mound of broken bottles and beer caps now," said Andre, "but it must have been an awesome sight 3000 years ago when it was thrown together. The sun would hit the top bottles during the spring and fall equinoxes--and shine through to the other side--as if it were pointing towards some ancient liquor store." Although Mohl-Sun was the dominant beer god in Central Canada, the West Coast had its own drunken deity. Kokanee the Clever was a trickster god, often giving the illusion of beauty to those who drank too many beers around the longhouse. Kokanee's trickery brought together many unattractive couples together for mating, which fulfilled his other function as a fertility figure. One legend speaks of Kokanee flying to Earth in the form of an ugly raven. The villagers, appalled by the site of their god, consumed beer all night until the raven turned into an eagle, approximately two hours past midnight, when the traditional drinking longhouses were about to close. Most of what we know about these deities of malt, barley, and hops is horribly incomplete. Inscriptions and drawings found in the ancient beer caves of Kenora, and from the Dried Bark Scrolls are almost illegible and, unless large quantities of beer are drunk, incomprehensible as well. Canadians to this day are grateful for their gift from the gods of beer, and try to worship him at least three times a week. |
