lal asked a miner's joke - here are found relatively decent.


miner Goes from the mine, a bit late. the foreman Running towards : "come on, the medical Board has come!".
Well, miner undressed, stands in front of the medical Board, the chief says to him:
"Open the head of the penis".
The miner has just started to push back the foreskin and something white drop on floor.
"What is that?"
"Yes that's my gum. You see, in the mine it's very dusty, so I hide it in here, well not in the ass to put it?".
"Ok, Quite open to end",
Again something white drops.
"Well, this belongs to my buddy, coalcutter operator. He is a Muslim".

I don't even get it + it's funny. (probably the muslim part).

If somebody can translate this in English - I'll correct with pleasure

The miner has to hold his friend's gum also because Muslims are circumcised, and the friend can't hold his own gum under his non-existent foreskin.

Either that, or I've created my own joke.

I think it's pretty funny. The guy holding his gum under his foreskin makes you flinch. The fact that he's holding his friend's gum also, cracks me up. Nice one Vashper.

You are right. And in the original not a Muslim, and Tatar - they are one of nationalities in Russia (in the Ukraine in this case), they are mostly Muslims. But this logical chain, certainly, foreigners do not overpower.
Generally miner's anecdotes are valuable because miners joke on themselves, it is a special type of humor. Dangerous profession, a strong people.

Vashper, here it is...


A miner arrives late at the mine. The foreman runs towards him: "Hurry up! The Medical Board is around!"

The miner undresses, and stands stark naked in front of the Medical Board. The Chief Medical Officer tells him: "Pull back your foreskin."

As he executes the manoeuver, something white falls on the floor. The Doctor asks: "What is that?"

"Er... That's my gum. You see, down in the mine it gets really dusty, so I hide it there, keeps it clean. I can't stick it up my arse, can I?"

Impatiently, the Doctor says: "OK, OK. Bend over, spread your cheeks, then squat."

As soon as the miner is in position, something white falls to the floor from his rear-end. Puzzled, the Doctor asks: "And this one, what is it?"

"Well... That one belongs to my buddy, he operates the big cutter. He asked me to keep his gum. He's Muslim, doesn't have no foreskin to keep it in..."

Half the Americans are circumcised!

I have not researched this issue as extensively.

Half of Americans are Jewish ?

Not Jewish; but I suspect a good number of men are circumcised simply because their mother wanted to get even with men in general.

Supposedly uncircumcised men might be a higher risk for STDs, HIV, cancer. Supposedly 10% of the men in Europe are cut, and 55% in the U.S., with number dropping.
