I am sure you guys dont get it .

It isnt what Mort says that is funny - its the way people rise to the bait everytime. Why do you let him rile you so easily?

Mate , maybe we just get more practice at slagging each other so we have become semi-immune ? Actually , for an Aussie , that joke is quite funny . Did it take long for your mother to type it for you ?

G'day Muzza

You're right there. I've been looking for jokes here for a few days and I can't believe how easily some people keep taking the bait. I think we must shit-stir a lot more in the Southern Hemisphere.

I read a good joke in Street Machine magazine last month. It involves a Kiwi and an Australian. I'll post it here because there's been something of a joke deficit happening:

A Kiwi, an Aussie, a beautiful blond Swedish girl and an old Greek woman are in a train carriage together, going through the Alps.

The train enters a tunnel and the carriage is completely dark. A loud slap is heard in the dark, and when the train exits the tunnel the Kiwi has a bright red hand print on his cheek.

The old woman thinks: that Kiwi must have groped that young girl while we were in the tunnel, so she slapped him.

The young girl thinks: that Kiwi must have tried to grope me while we were in the tunnel and groped the old woman by mistake, so she slapped him.

The Kiwi thinks: that Aussie must have groped that young girl while we were in the tunnel and she thought it was me, so she slapped me. Bastard!

The Aussie thinks: I hope we go through another tunnel soon, so I can hit that Kiwi again!

You can change the Kiwi and the Aussie around if you like, Muzza. Enjoy!

PS I'll post this one as a new post so everyone can have a laugh. Oh, except Kiwis!
