It would have been funny, but it's such a played out predictable story line that it only rates a mildly amusing. This group is full of bigots, and by the definition I offered, I am one, but I don't see the joke supportive of the claim that the OP is a bigot. As a humor snob, for a joke to be funny it really should not have a predictable punch line. As far as the Irish, we all know they are drunks who are very rarely sober. On a serious note, how did "Paddy" become a name for the Irish? Now for some good Irish Drinking jokes: 1. O'Connell was staggering home with a small Paddy in his back pocket when he slipped and fell heavily. Struggling to his feet, he felt something wet running down his leg. "Please, God," he implored, "let it be blood!" 2. An Irish man walks into a pub. The bartender asks him, "what'll you have?" The man says, "Give me three pints of Guinness please." So the bartender brings him three pints and the man proceeds to alternately sip one, then the other, then the third until they're gone. He then orders three more. The bartender says, "Sir, I know you like them cold. You don't have to order three at a time. I can keep an eye on it and when you get low I'll bring you a fresh cold one." The man says, "You don't understand. I have two brothers, one in Australia and one in the States. We made a vow to each other that every Saturday night we'd still drink together. So right now, my brothers have three Guinness Stouts too, and we're drinking together. The bartender thought that was a wonderful tradition. Every week the man came in and ordered three beers. Then one week he came in and ordered only two. He drank them and then ordered two more. The bartender said to him, "I know what your tradition is, and I'd just like to say that I'm sorry that one of your brothers died." The man said, "Oh, me brothers are fine----I just quit drinking." -- Reggie "That's my story and I am sticking to it." Get a life Reggie. |
