Who says the Germans don't have a sense of humour?

There was an English cat called One-two-three, and a French cat called Un-deux-trois. They entered a swimming race. The English cat won because the Un-deux-trois cat sank.

Cease immediately.

Hans? Dutch name surely, not German?

Nonsense - you get plenty of Hanses in both places but there's certainly an absolute ton of them in Germany. Of course they're practically the same language anyway.

A greyhound walks in to a bar to see a horse preparing a PARMA ham sandwich for an Englishman, Irishman and a Scotsman. He says to the horse "guess what, I've just removed all Northern Europeans and people of German and Dutch origin living elsewhere from my mobile."

"Is it Hans free?" asks the horse.

"Of course it f***ing is, How am I supposed to hold it with paws?" replies the greyhound.

Bravo, excellent reworking of an all-time favourite :thumbsup:

Since we can't decide which country owns "Hans":

I've removed all north European friends from my mobile. My address books is pretty much empty* now.


*except a few French people , 2 Italians and 3 Spaniards



It sounds top drawer now.

And Corellians?

Agreed. If anything could be ever designated NSC PLATINUM, that thread and that thread alone should be.

It's not really a joke but I did laugh out loud at an exchange on the News Quiz years ago, when Mitt Romney was trying to become president. Apparently Mitt's first job was selling Mormonism door-to-door in France. It was a tough call but according to one of the panelists it would have been even tougher in Germany. "Just imagine, he'd know at the door and some old boy in leather shorts would answer it and Mitt would say "Hello, I'm Mitt Romney" and the old German would look over his shoulder and bark: "Then vere the 'ell is Romney?"
