He's a Yorkshireman, they still haven't settled their ww2 debt to the US. (England's last payement was early 2000s.

How do you keep a secret from a Yorkshireman? Hide it under the soap.

What's the secret to the cuisine of Yorkshire? Never run out of Henderson's sauce.

I've noticed that often when a group of people, especially guys, are talking with each other, but don't really have anything to talk about, they will start telling jokes. Around and around it will go, each one not really listening to the others but merely waiting for their turn to say "Did you hear the one about....." I've observed also that the overuse of swear words such as the "f-bomb" is not a matter of being colorful, but represents laziness in the person's speaking. It is easier just to subsitute the profanity than it is to come up with an actual word for the situation at hand. This is not to say that there is no place for a joke , witty observation, or a well-placed profanity' but I prefer them as an appetizer or dessert as opposed to the meal itself. As to the point of "If you are offended or annoyed by the jokes (or anything else) then why do you read them?" For the most part, I don't. Thanks.

What exactly are you then if I'm an asshole. Have you got your knickers in a twist as well? Did the jokes get under your thin skin. shame eh!. Spitting your dummy out and throwing your toys about..You will get over it, have a nice lay down in a quiet room and take a couple of aspirins, you'll be fine. Obviously you are taking side of the American individual?? because you are one. The whole thread has now gone off the tracks, because one individual got arse ache and started on about the USA and Second World War, because the jokes that the people asked for, must have upset him./....what a shame poor little lamb eh! Then another individual chimes up "you" calling me an asshole because I was insulted by individual one.

Your quote'
"This is vintage Graham...a real asshole!! Say something he doesn't agree with or misinterprets and"
insults are hurled.
It's a load of nonsense isn't it. there was nothing at all that what was misinterpreted. This quote is just an excuse to have a go at me, because I had go I had ago at him, about what he said about the war. As I said at the very start of this reply "what exactly are you then if I'm an asshole".

Come on folks, let's not get carried away by a little bit of humor. Have a laugh and go on with your day. Remember, a large percentage of women are blond and yet we seem to enjoy throwing out so called blonde jokes yet I don't see any blonde women getting all upset!

That's the funniest joke Iv'e ever heard. I'm surprised though, that you know the word soap.

This country was able to help Europe when it was needed most. Who knows how WW2 would have ended up otherwise. Hey, maybe if Erwin Rommel had been running the show, we could all be speaking German. But during my time in London I didn't see much of a difference between British and Americans (except for that monarchy thing and of course the food. Warm beer???)

It appears this Joke Thread has turned into World War Two information

Graham, liked most of them some didn't hit hard enough.
About WW2. Let us all remember that that little island stood up to the worst tyrant in world history and thumbed their nose at Hitler and his thugs. They didn't give up and their leader told that dumb A$$+*^! they would fight him on the beaches or the cities but would never surrender. Their Air Force beat the hell out of the German AF.

Of course there’s the obligatory mention of warm beer.

Being an American (USA variety) I am used to ice cold beer and like it that way. But when it comes to beer/ale/stout that actually has some taste, the chill does reduce the flavor.

I will tell you something nearly all those jokes were from American Comedians

Robin Williams, George Carlin, Louis CK, Woody Allen, Mike Birbiglia, Russell Peters, Bill Cosby, Bill Burr etc etc

Let's face it comedians won't be famous going on stage and telling Christmas cracker jokes. If you was
in a theatre with the atmosphere, they get away with murder. We have the same over here in England.
The introduction of Political Correctness has made a big difference to some of the comedians over here.
