The man was in no shape to drive, so he wisely left his car parked and walked home. As he was walking unsteadily along, he was stopped by a policeman.

"What are you doing out here at 2 A.M.?" said the officer.

"I'm going to a lecture." the man said.

"And who is going to give a lecture at this hour?" the cop asked.

"My wife." said the man.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A police officer, though scheduled for all-night duty at the station, was relieved of duty early and arrived home four hours ahead of schedule, at 2 in the morning. Not wanting to wake his wife, he undressed in the dark, crept into the bedroom and started to climb into bed.

Just then, his wife sleepily sat up and said, "Mike, dearest, would you go down to the all-night drug store on the next block and get me some aspirin? I've got a splitting headache."

"Certainly, honey," he said, and feeling his way across the dark room, he got dressed and walked over to the drug store.

As he arrived, the pharmacist looked up in surprise, "Say," said the druggist, "I know you - aren't you a policeman? Officer Fenwick, right?"

"Yeah, so?" said the officer.

"Well, why are you all dressed up like a Fireman?

Brendan Venter, manager of a lowly London and South-east rugby club took his team on an African safari holiday, and while there, he came across a native athlete who could run, kick, pass, and juggle a coconut like a born rugby player.

Excitedly, the manager called a meeting of all the players and introduced the young athlete to them. 'This fellow's brilliant!' he said, 'and I've persuaded him to join the team, on six months' trial. His name is Obongo Matabulu. Now then,' he continued, holding up a rugby ball, 'this - ball -BALL!'Then, pointing at the goalposts, he said, 'That-goal - GOAL! That - goal line - GOAL LINE! You put BALL over GOAL LINE: or kick BALL over CROSSBAR.'

'You don't need to explain the game in those simple and rather patronising terms, old boy,' said Obongo Matabulu. 'I played for Harrow when I went to school there, and later for the Cambridge University.'
'I'm not talking to you,' said the manager. 'I'm talking to the rest of the team!

Little Justin Marshall joined a big northern club and found himself dwarfed by the big 200-pounders.
Nobody seemed to pay any attention to him and he began to wonder whether he was being deliberately snubbed. He approached the captain and told him of his troubles.

The captain patted him on the shoulder and said, 'Don't worry about it, son. They're not giving you the cold shoulder. They just haven't seen you yet.'

The Ronan O'Gara was in the pub one night when he noticed the landlord's dog behind the bar counter, contentedly licking its balls. He laughed and said to the landlord, 'I wish I could do that!'
'Well,' said the landlord, 'give him a biscuit and he might let you.'

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gareth Thomas & Gavin Henson were taking a holiday together with their respective wives. After a week at the seaside they were both thoroughly bored.
In the bar one night they decided to exchange partners in order to see if they could liven up the holiday. The following morning at breakfast they compared notes.
'I'm glad we tried that,' said one. 'I had a smashing time! Ah, here come the girls. Let's ask them how they got on.'

Two guys from Invercargill die and wake up in hell.

The next day the devil stops in to check on them and sees them dressed in swannies, mittens and balaclavas warming themselves around the fire. The devil asks them, "What are you doing? Isn't it hot enough for you?"

The two guys reply, "Well, you know, we're from Invercargill, the land of snow and ice and cold. We're just Happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh." The devil decides that these two aren't miserable enough and turns up the heat. The next morning he stops in again and there they are, still dressed in swannies, mittens and balaclavas

The devil asks them again, "It's awfully hot down here, can't you guys feel it?" Again the two guys reply, "Well, like we told ya yesterday, we're from Invercargill, the land of snow and ice and cold. We're just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh."

This gets the devil a little steamed up and he decides to fix these two guys. He cranks the heat up as high as it will go. The people are wailing and screaming everywhere. He stops by the room with the two guys from Invercargill and finds them in "T" shirts, footie shorts and jandals drinking a speights and cooking a "barbie"

The devil is astonished, "Everyone down here is in abject misery, and you two seem to be enjoying yourselves." The two Southlanders reply, "Well, ya know, we don't get too much warm weather down there in Invercargill so we've just got to have a cook-up when the weather's THIS nice."

The devil is absolutely furious, he can hardly see straight. Finally he comes up with the answer. The two guys love the heat because they have been cold all their lives. The devil decides to turn all the heat off in hell. The next morning, the temperature is below zero, icicles are hanging everywhere; people are shivering so bad that they are unable to do anything but wail, moan and gnash their teeth.

The devil smiles and heads for the room with the two Southlanders. He gets there and finds them back in their swannies, mittens and balaclavas. NOW they are jumping up and down, cheering, yelling and screaming like mad men!!!

The devil is dumbfounded, "I don't understand, when I turn up the heat you're happy. Now it's freezing cold and you're still happy. What is wrong with you two???" The Southlanders look at the devil in surprise,

"Well, don't you know? If hell freezes over, it must mean that Southland has won the N.P.C rugby

Warning, bad taste/offensive jokes. Mods please edit the post if some jokes are no-no.

If you are faint hearted or dont like sexist and racist jokes please don't read.








- On a beautiful deserted island in the middle of nowhere, the following people are stranded:
Two Italian men and one Italian woman
Two French men and one French woman
Two German men and one German woman
Two Greek men and one Greek woman
Two English men and one English woman
Two Bulgarian men and one Bulgarian woman
Two Japanese men and one Japanese woman
Two American men and one American woman
Two Australian men and one Australian woman
Two New Zealand men and one New Zealand woman
Two Irish men and one Irish woman

One month later the following things have occurred:

One Italian man killed the other Italian man for the Italian woman.

The two French men and the French woman are living happily together having loads of sex.

The two German men have a strict weekly schedule of when they alternate with the German woman.

The two Greek men are sleeping with each other and the Greek woman is cleaning and cooking for them.

The two English men are waiting for someone to introduce them to the English woman.

The two Bulgarian men took a long look at the endless ocean and one look at the Bulgarian woman and they started swimming.

The two American men are talking about football, while the American woman keeps on bitching about her body being her own, the true nature of feminism, how she can do everything that they can do, about the necessity of fulfillment, the equal division of household chores, how her last boyfriend respected her opinion and treated her much nicer and how her relationship with her mother is improving - but hey, at least the taxes are low and it's not raining.

The two Japanese men have faxed Tokyo and are awaiting further instructions.

The two Australian men beat each into a bloody mess for the Australian woman, who is checking out all the other men after calling them both wankers'.

Both the New Zealand men are searching the island for sheep.

The Irish began by dividing the island into North and South and by setting up a distillery. They do not remember if sex is in the picture because it gets sort of foggy after the first few bottles of coconut whisky, but at least the English are not getting any.



- "Doctor! I think my wife is dead."
"How can you tell?"
"Well, the sex is still the same but the dishes are piling up."



- I hear jeremy beadle has a small dick, but on the other hand, its quite big...

- Jeremy beadle and his wife were playing cards, his wife looks over and says 'thats a shit hand you've got there jeremy'



- I was checking into a hotel the other week. At the counter, a guy in front of me said curtly to the receptionist, "I hope the porn channel is disabled."

Unbelievable what some people are into.



- An Englishman, Welshman and West Indian are in hospital, waiting for their wives to give birth. There is quite a bit of pacing up and down when the nurse comes out and happily announces that they are all fathers of bouncing baby boys.

"There's just one problem" she says. "Because they were all born at the same time we got the tags mixed up and we don’t know which baby belongs to whom. Would you, as their fathers, mind coming to identify them?" The men agree and walk into the delivery room and look at the babies.

Immediately the Englishman stoops down and picks up the black baby. "Yes, this is definietly my baby" he says confidently.
"Um, excuse me" says the West Indian "but I think it's fairly obvious that this is my son"
The Englishman pulls him aside and says "I see where you're coming from mate but one of these babies is Welsh and I'm not prepared to take the risk"



- A family are driving behind a garbage truck when a dildo flies out and thumps against the windscreen.

Embarrassed, and to spare her young son's innocence, the mother turns around and says, "Don't worry; that was an insect."

To which, her son replies, "I'm surprised it could get off the ground with a cock like that."


- A guy is out on the lash with his mates and gets very pissed. By the time he staggers home he's covered in puke and to make things worse, his wife is waiting for him to give him a bollocking. "You do this again" she says, "and I want a divorce"

The next week he's out again with his mates, but is avoiding the booze. One of his mates asks why, so he explains what happened when he got home after the last night out.

His mate has a tried and trusted idea: "When it happens again, make sure you have twenty quid in your shirt pocket so you can tell your wife that someone else puked on you and put the money in there for the dry cleaning!"

Armed with this brilliant suggestion, he proceeds to get completely bolloxed.

Some hours later he falls through the front door, again, covered in puke.

His wife freaks. He slurs, "It wasn't me! A guy puked on me! He gave me twenty quid for the cleaning, check my pocket!"

His wife looks in his shirt pocket and says, "There's forty quid here."

"Yeah" The guy replies, "that's from another bloke who shat in my pants"


- I just don't get it, everyone goes on about David Beckham being thick...... but no **** says anything about Stephen Hawking being shit at football, do they?!

Got to give credit where it's due though - he's great at dribbling.



- My wife's star sign was cancer and it's quite ironic how she died really...

She was attacked by a giant crab.


- A man gets a phone call from a local hospital, informing him that his wife has been in a terrible car accident and that he should get down to the hospital right away.

The man rushes down to the hospital in a panic. When he gets there, he finds the doctor and inquires as to the condition of his wife.

"I'm afraid I have very bad news", says the Dr., and the man's heart lumps in his throat.

"Your wife suffered terrible injuries, and has been completely paralyzed from the neck down," continues the Dr., and the man starts to cry.

The Dr. continues, "She won't be able to do anything by herself anymore. You will have to feed her for every meal." The man is completely choked up.

"She can't use the bathroom, and will pee into a catheter and shit into a colostomy bag, and you will have to clean her up and wipe her ass." The man is hysterical and inconsolable.

"Because she is stuck to a bed, you will have to turn her body every couple of hours so she doesn't get bed sores which can lead to further complications". The man falls to the floor in hysterics, unable to catch a breath from his sobbing.

After the man gathers himself a little and is able to stand up, the Dr. says: "Hey, I'm just ****ing with you, she's dead."


- Homeopathy scientists say that their medicine works because water has a 'memory'.

That's scared me because I've done some nasty things in the shower.



- The doctor told me "you've got to stop masturbating." When I asked why, he said "because I'm trying to examine you."


- During a blazing row with my youngest son, he turned to me and screamed, "I wish I was adopted".

Well, its taken six months and a lot of paperwork, but finally I've managed to make his wish come true.


- As an airplane is about to crash, a female passenger jumps up frantically and announces, "If I'm going to die, I want to die feeling like a woman."
She removes all her clothing and asks, "Is there someone on this plane who is man enough to make me feel like a woman?"
A man stands up, removes his shirt and says, "Here, iron this!".


- This beautiful woman one day walks into a doctors office and the doctor is bowled over by how stunningly awesome she is. All his professionallism goes right out the window...
He tells her to take her pants, she does, and he starts rubbing her thighs.
"Do you know what I am doing?" asks the doctor?
"Yes, checking for abnormalities." she replies.
He tells her to take off her shirt and bra, she takes them off. The doctor begins rubbing her breasts and asks, "Do you know what I am doing now?", she replies, "Yes, checking for cancer."
Finally, he tells her to take off her panties, lays her on the table, gets on top of her and starts having sex with her. He says to her, "Do you know what I am doing now?"
She replies, "Yes, getting herpies - thats why I am here!"


- Some bloke at a bus stop earlier hit me on the legs with a stick for no reason.

Naturally, I retaliated and beat the living shit out of him.

Just for good measure, I kicked his Labrador as well.


- My girlfriend told me I suffer from a lack of imagination.

I said, "Yeah? Well you suffer from a lack of imagination."

That showed her.



- My wife said to me, "I'm fed up with you being so lazy, pack your bags and leave."

I said, "You pack them."


- The other day, I asked my wife: "Tell me something that will make me happy and sad at the same time"

She replied: "You have the biggest cock out of all your mates "






- I feel the same way about turtles as I do Asian people.

A man comes home from work, sits down in his favourite chair, turns on the TV, and says to his wife, “Quick, bring me a beer before it starts.” She’s puzzled but goes and gets him a beer anyway.

The guy quickly downs the beer and says, “Quick, bring me another cold one. It’s about to start.” His wife huffs a little but still gets him another beer.

“One more before it starts!” the husband yells out after finishing off the second can.

“That’s it!” his wife screams. “I cook and clean and wash and iron all day long. Then you waltz in here, flop your fat ass down, and expect me to run around like your slave! If you think that’s how it works, you’ve got another thing coming!”

“Damn,” mutters the husband. “It started.”

Recently a routine Police patrol car parked outside a local neighbourhood pub.
Late in the evening the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the car park for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five vehicles. The man managed to find his car, which he fell into. He was there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off. Finally he started the car, switched the wipers on and off (it was a fine dry night). Then flicked the indicators on, then off, tooted the horn and then switched on the lights. He moved the vehicle forward a few feet, reversed a little and then remained stationary for a few more minutes as some more vehicles left. At last he pulled out of the car park and started to drive slowly down the road. The Police officer, having patiently waited all this time, now started up the patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man over and carried out a random breathalyser test.
To his amazement the breathalyser indicated no evidence of the man's intoxication. The Police officer said 'I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the Police station - this breathalyser equipment must be broken.' 'I doubt it,' said the man, 'tonight I'm the designated decoy'

DISCLAIMER: I do not in any way endorse stereotyping of anyone for any purposes other than awesome jokes like the following:

The British are feeling the pinch in relation to recent bombings and have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved." Soon, though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross." Londoners have not been "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies all but ran out. Terrorists have been re-categorised from "Tiresome" to a "Bloody Nuisance." The last time the British issued a "Bloody Nuisance" warning level was during the great fire of 1666.

Also, the French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from "Run" to "Hide." The only two higher levels in France are "Surrender" and "Collaborate." The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France's white flag factory, effectively paralysing the country's military capability.

It's not only the English and French that are on a heightened level of alert. Italy has increased the alert level from "Shout Loudly and Excitedly" to "Elaborate Military Posturing." Two more levels remain: "Ineffective Combat Operations" and "Change Sides."

The Germans also increased their alert state from "Disdainful Arrogance" to "Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs." They also have two higher levels: "Invade a Neighbour" and "Lose."

Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual, and the only threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of Brussels.

The Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so the new Spanish navy can get a really good look at the old Spanish navy.

Americans meanwhile are carrying out pre-emptive strikes, on all of their allies, just in case.

And at a local level...New Zealand has also raised its security levels - from "baaa" to "BAAAA!". Due to continuing defence cutbacks (the airforce being a squadron of spotty teenagers flying paper aeroplanes and the navy some toy boats in the Prime Minister's bath), New Zealand only has one more level of escalation, which is "Shut, I hope Austrulia will come end riscue us".

In the event of invasion, New Zealanders will be asked to gather together in a strategic defensive position called "Bondi".

Australia, meanwhile, has raised its security level from "No worries" to "She'll be right, mate". Three more escalation levels remain, "Crikey!', "I think we'll need to cancel the barbie this weekend" and "The barbie is cancelled".

There has not been a situation yet that has warranted the use of the final escalation level.

Sir Alex Ferguson has been brought in by Northumbria police to assist in the hunt for Raoul Moat.

After his success with Juan Sebastian Veron, the police think he's the idea man to capture another over hyped useless ****.

[TRF_Ezequiel]

There were three men who were lost in the forest. They
were then captured by cannibals. The cannibal king then
told the prisoners that they could live if they pass the
trial. First step of the trial is to go to the forest
with the cannibals and get ten pieces of the same kind of
fruit. So all three men went separate ways to gather fruits.

The first one came back and said to the king, "I brought
ten apples." The king then explains the trial to him. You
have to shove the fruits up your ass without any expression
on your face or you'll be eaten. The first apple went in...
but on the second one he winced out in pain, so he was
killed and went to heaven.

The second one arrives and shows the king his ten fruits
were berries. When the king explained the trial to him he
thought to himself that this should be easy.

1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... on the ninth berry
he burst out in laughter, therefore also was killed.

The first guy and the second guy met in heaven. The first
one asked, "Why did you laugh, you almost got away with
it?" The second one replied, "I couldn't help it, I saw
the third guy coming with pineapples."

Not sure if this was posted before, but I believe it's quite appropriate for the current time..

A South African was sitting with an Aussie and an Englishman in Saudi Arabia, sharing a smuggled barrel of beer, when all of a sudden the police entered and arrested them. They were initially given the death sentence but contested this and were finally imprisoned for life. But as it was a national holiday, the Sheik decided they should be released after each receiving 20 lashes of the whip.

As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheik suddenly said: “It’s my first wife’s birthday today and she asked me to allow each of you one wish before your whipping, but you can not wish to not be whipped!”

The Englishman thought for a second then said: “Please tie a pillow to my back before whipping.” This was done but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went through. The Englishman cried in pain.

The Aussie saw this and said: “Please tie 2 pillows to my back before whipping.” This was done and lasted for the whole 20 lashes. The Aussie stood up smiling.

The South African saw this but before he could make his wish, the Sheikh said: “As you are from South Africa with all that crime, a cricket team who is always losing in a final and a rugby team who can’t win anything, you are permitted to have two wishes!”

The South African thought for a second, then said: “Thank you most Royal and Merciful Highness. My first wish is to receive a hundred
lashes with the strongest, toughest whip available.”

“If you so desire,” the Sheik replies with a questioning look on his face, “and your second wish?”

“Tie the Aussie to my back”

THIS IS LABOUR GOVERNMENT

REST OF THE WORLD VERSION:

The squirrel works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building and improving his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks he's a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the squirrel is warm and well fed.

The shivering grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

THE END

------------------------------------------------------------------------

LABOUR GOVERNMENT THE UK VERSION

The squirrel works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks he's a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the squirrel is warm and well fed.

A social worker finds the shivering grasshopper, calls a press conference and demands to know why the squirrel should be allowed to be warm and well fed while others less fortunate, like the grasshopper, are cold and starving.

The BBC shows up to provide live coverage of the shivering grasshopper; with cuts to a video of the squirrel in his comfortable warm home with a table laden with food.

The British press inform people that they should be ashamed that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so, while others have plenty.

The Labour Party, Greenpeace, Animal Rights and The Grasshopper Council of GB demonstrate in front of the squirrel's house. The BBC, interrupting a cultural festival special from Notting Hill with breaking news, broadcasts a multi-cultural choir singing 'We shall overcome'.

Ken Livingstone rants in an interview with Trevor McDonald that the squirrel got rich off the backs of grasshoppers, and calls for an immediate tax hike on the squirrel to make him pay his 'fair share' and increases the charge for squirrels to enter inner London .

In response to pressure from the media, the Government drafts the Economic Equity and Grasshopper anti Discrimination Act, retroactive to the beginning of the summer.

The squirrel's taxes are reassessed. He is taken to court and fined for failing to hire grasshoppers as builders for the work he was doing on his home and an additional fine for contempt when he told the court the grasshopper did not want to work. The grasshopper is provided with a council house, financial aid to furnish it and an account with a local taxi firm to ensure he can be socially mobile. The squirrel's food is seized and re distributed to the more needy members of society, in this case the grasshopper.

Without enough money to buy more food, to pay the fine and his newly imposed retroactive taxes, the squirrel has to downsize and start building a new home. The local authority takes over his old home and utilises it as a temporary home for asylum seeking cats who had hijacked a plane to get to Britain as they had to share their country of origin with mice. On arrival they tried to blow up the airport because of Britain 's apparent love of dogs.

The cats had been arrested for the international offence of hijacking and attempted bombing but were immediately released because the police fed them pilchards instead of salmon whilst in custody. Initial moves to return them to their own country were abandoned, because it was feared they would face death by the mice. The cats devise and start a scam to obtain money from people's credit cards.

A Panorama special shows the grasshopper finishing up the last of the squirrel's food, though spring is still months away, while the council house he is in, crumbles around him because he hasn't bothered to maintain the house. He is shown to be taking drugs. Inadequate government funding is blamed for the grasshoppers' drug 'illness'.

The cats seek recompense in the British courts for their treatment since arrival in UK .

The grasshopper gets arrested for stabbing an old dog during a burglary to get money for his drugs habit. He is imprisoned but released immediately because he has been in custody for a few weeks. He is placed in the care of the probation service to monitor and supervise him.. Within a few weeks he has killed a guinea pig in a botched robbery.

A commission of enquiry, that will eventually cost £10,000,000 and state the obvious, is set up. Additional money is put into funding a drug rehabilitation scheme for
grasshoppers and legal aid for lawyers representing asylum seekers is increased. The government praises the asylum-seeking cats for enriching Britain 's multicultural diversity, and dogs are criticised by the government for failing to befriend the cats.

The grasshopper dies of a drug overdose. The usual sections of the press blame it on the obvious failure of government to address the root causes of despair arising from social inequity and his traumatic experience of prison. They call for the resignation of a government minister.

The cats are paid a million pounds each because their rights were infringed when the government failed to inform them there were mice in the United Kingdom .

The squirrel, the dogs and the victims of the hijacking, the bombing, the burglaries and robberies have to pay an additional percentage on their credit cards to cover losses. Their taxes are increased to pay for law and order, and they are told that they will have to work beyond 65 because of a shortfall in government funds.

THE END

No, feicarsinn - that's just depressing.

I was going through airport customs and I got asked "Do you have any firearms?"

Apparently, "What do you need?" wasn't the right answer.
