September the 5th was the 35th anniversary of the passing of Sir Douglas Bader. Bader was a WWII RAF Hero. Here is an excerpt from a talk, he gave, for a girls school shortly before his passing. "So there were two f***ers, behind me, three f***ers to my right, one f***er to my left he told his audience." At which point the schools headmistress interjected that "Fokker's were German Aircraft." To which Sir Douglas responded, " That may be Madam, but these f***ers were in Messerschmitt's! And, we got them all.

Yes we British or English I should say, are famous for our sense of humour. When the navy was building a new Polar research vessel, they asked the public to come up with a name for the new ship, and you guessed it, it was this...... link |

Reminds me of the Homecoming theme we used at Ole Miss when we played the Vanderbilt Commodores . The Chancellor was not pleased and I spent most of the afternoon in his office listening to him express his displeasure with what I came up with.
The theme was "Knock the Ship out of the Doors" hardly an "explicitly offensive use of words" but it was his school.

Dave: I am very sorry to inform you of this, but you have put the words of Sven, of Sven and Ole fame into the mouth of Sir Douglas. If you don't know who Sven and Ole are then it is obvious that you have never been to Minnesota.

Sometimes I don't know how your cultural life has been so sheltered. Either that are you are pulling my leg.
Sven and Ole are the arch-typical Norwegians of the Minnesota bar room and VFW circuit. There are more Sven and Ole jokes than there are leaves on the trees.
I assure you that Sir Douglas never said what that miscreant Tom wants you to believe.

Dave: I am very sorry to inform you of this, but you have put the words of Sven, of Sven and Ole fame into the mouth of Sir Douglas. If you don't know who Sven and Ole are then it is obvious that you have never been to Minnesota. A Swen and Ole go duck hunting and Ole is very excited to show off his new hunting dog. They are out in their duck hunting boat and a couple of ducks fly over. They fire and a duck them drops. Ole sends his retriever out to get the duck. The dog jumps out of the boat and runs across the water picks up duck and hops back into the boat. And much to Ole's dismay, Swen doesn't say word. Another couple of ducks fly over. They shoot and another duck falls. Ole sends his dog out again. The dog again runs across the water, picks up the duck, and runs back and hops into the boat. Still, Swen doesn't say a word. This happens several more times and finally Ole smugly says, "So Swen, do you notice anything unusual about my new dog?" "Ja, he can't swim." Ole and Lena got married. On their honeymoon trip they were nearing Minneapolis when Ole put his hand on Lena's knee. Giggling, Lena said, "Ole, you can go a little farder now if ya vant to"... so Ole drove to Duluth. Sven and Ole are up fixing the roof. Sven picks up a nail, looks at it, and throws it away. He picks up the next one, looks at it, and hammers it into the roof. The next one, he hammers it into the roof; the next one, he throws it away. Ole says, "Sven, why do you throw away half the nails?" Sven says, "Ole, don't you see, they have the point on the wrong end!" Ole says, “Sven, don't be such a dummy! Those are for the OTHER side of the roof! |

Damn it, pick one, as it is a factual statement.

What y'all are talking about are Bubba jokes and Cajun ones. I suppose the stories are all the same with different names and accents.

In the backwoods of Colorado, Bubba's wife went into labor in the middle of the night. The doctor was called in to assist in the delivery. To keep the nervous father-to-be busy, the doctor handed him a lantern and said, "Here, you hold this high so I can see what I'm doing." Soon, a baby boy was brought into the world
"Don't be in a rush to put the lantern down. I think there's yet another wee one to come." Sure enough, within minutes he had delivered another baby.
"Now don't be in a great hurry to be putting down that lantern, young man. It seems there's yet another!" cried the doctor.
The new father scratched his head in bewilderment and asked the doctor. "Do ya think it's the light that's attractin' them?"

Bubba does not live in Colorado. Clem lives in Colorado.
We do not have backwoods in Colorado. We have high mountain meadows in Colorado.
Triplets are banned in Colorado. Our twins though are far from wee, and they enter high school when they are two weeks old.
Don't you know nuttin

With marijuana being legal in Colorado do you really expect me to believe there are no rednecks in The Rocky Mountain High State? What no Tractor Pulls, Mud Hole Diving (both genders), Beer Diving in Tubs or the ever favorite "Watch This" event?
