20 Dec 07 - 09:51 PM (#2220068) Subject: RE: voted best scottish joke From: Q (Frank Staplin) An oldie. Two Scots lassies have just arrived in the U. S. One says, "I hear the people here eat dogs." The other replied, "Oooh, I guess we will have to do as they do." They see a hot dog vendor and order two dogs. Excited, the lassies unwrapped their 'dogs.' One lassie stared at hers for a moment and whispered, "Which part did you get?" |

20 Dec 07 - 11:37 PM (#2220109) Subject: RE: voted best scottish joke From: Don Firth The Irish invented the bagpipes, introduced them to the Scots, and told them it was a musical instrument. The Scots haven't caught onto the joke yet! Don Firth P. S. Historically incorrect and completely slanderous, of course, but not a half-bad joke. . . . I believe the pipes are considered to be an instrument of war. |

21 Dec 07 - 06:43 AM (#2220230) Subject: RE: voted best scottish joke From: Backwoodsman Disgraceful and blatant racism. You should be ashamed of yourselves - if these jokes were aimed at muslims, or dark-skinned people, or homosexuals, you'd have all the Usual-Suspect-Mudcat-PC-Thought-Police tearing at your throats and calling for you to be hung, drawn and quartered. :-) :-) |

21 Dec 07 - 08:03 AM (#2220253) Subject: RE: voted best scottish joke From: artbrooks Perhaps so, Backwoodsman. However, unlike the others mentioned, the Scots deserve to be abused. The invention of haggis, in and of itself, justifies almost anything. |

21 Dec 07 - 08:06 AM (#2220254) Subject: RE: voted best scottish joke From: Bill D I like the joke about the 2 friends and the "parting dram".

21 Dec 07 - 11:27 AM (#2220357) Subject: RE: voted best scottish joke From: John MacKenzie AMATEURS !! A Glasgow woman goes to the dentist and settles down in the chair. "Comfy?" asks the dentist. "Govan," she replies. A guy walks into an antiques shop and says: "How much for the set of antlers?" "Two hundred quid," says the bloke behind the counter. "That's affa deer," says the guy. Did you hear about the fella who liked eating bricks and cement? He's awa' noo. (work on it, you'll get it) After announcing he's getting married, a boy tells his pal he'll be wearing the kilt. "And what's the tartan?" asks his mate. "Oh, she'll be wearing a white dress," he replies. What do you call a pigeon that goes to Aviemore for its holidays? A skean dhu. How many Spanish guys does it take to change a lightbulb? Just Juan. A man takes a pair of shoes back to the shop and complains that there is a lace missing. "No," argues the assistant, "look at the label - it says Taiwan ." What do you call an illegitimate Scottish insect? A wee fly b*****d. While being interviewed for a job as a bus driver, a guy is asked: "What would you do if you had a rowdy passenger?" "I'd put him off at the next stop," he says. "Good. And what would you do if you couldn't get the fare?" "I'd take the first two weeks in August," he replies. Two negatives make a positive but only in Scotland do two positives make a negative - "Aye right." A Glasgow man - steaming and skint - is walking down Argyle Street when he spots a guy tinkering with the engine of his car. "What's up, Jimmy?" he asks. "Piston broke," he replies. "Aye, same as masel..." Must start a thread about Irish or Jewish jokes. Giok |

21 Dec 07 - 11:32 AM (#2220361) Subject: RE: voted best scottish joke From: John MacKenzie AND............................ An elderly Scotsman lay dying in his bed. While suffering the agonies of impending death, he suddenly smelled the aroma of his favourite biscuits wafting up the stairs. He gathered his remaining strength, and lifted himself from the bed. Leaning on the wall, he slowly made his way out of the bedroom, and with even greater effort, gripping the railing with both hands, he crawled downstairs. With laboured breath, he leaned against the door-frame, gazing into the kitchen. Were it not for death's agony, he would have thought himself already in heaven, for there, spread out upon waxed paper on the kitchen table were literally hundreds of his favourite biscuits, freshly baked. Was it heaven? Or was it one final act of love from his devoted Scottish wife of sixty years, seeing to it that he left this world a happy man? Mustering one great final effort, he threw himself towards the table, landing on his knees in crumpled posture. His aged and withered hand trembled towards a biscuit at the edge of the table, when it was suddenly smacked by his wife with a spatula............. "Fuck off" she said, "they're for the funeral." |

A Scot was giving directions to his house for a party. After explaining how to find the house he says to come to the front door and "ring the bell with your elbow." "Why with my elbow" he's asked. "Well you'd not be coming empty-handed now would you?" |

He tosses the dram glass, and breathes his last. He was interred on top of the wardrobe. |

21 Dec 07 - 08:24 PM (#2220640) Subject: RE: voted best scottish joke From: Joe_F There are, of course, also *anti*-Scottish jokes: A Scotsman sends his pants to the laundry with his socks in the pockets. A Scotsman & a Jew went to a meeting together. Unexpectedly, a collection was taken. The Jew fainted, and the Scotsman carried him out. (George Orwell, who told this joke in his essay on antisemitism, remarked that it would have seemed vaguely wrong if it had been the other way about.) |
