Help Please Doh!!! LOL.

  • Jul. 19th, 2008 at 8:06 PM

Someone sent me this and I'm not sure that I completely understand the Punch Line.Doh.LOL.
Can someone kindly explain it to me please?. I think I might have an itsy-bitsy idea.I do hope,it's not offensive to anyone.Blame me for being doubly Doh! Doh!LOL.
Well at least I admit it!LOL *waves to flist*(if I still have a Flist) *blushes*

Three blokes - a Canadian farmer, Osama bin Laden and an Aussie engineer

were all working together one day when they come across a lantern and a

Genie popped out of it. 'I will give each of you one wish, which is

three wishes in total' said the Genie.


 

The Canadian said, 'I am a farmer, and my son will also farm. I want the

land to be forever fertile in Canada.' POOOOFF! With the blink of the

Genie's eye, the land in Canada was forever fertile for farming.


 

Osama bin Laden was amazed, so he said, 'I want a wall around

Afghanistan, Israel, Palestine, Iraq and Iran so that no infidels,

Americans or Australians can come into our precious state.'

POOOFF! Again, with the blink of the Genie's eye, there was a huge wall

around those countries.


 

The Aussie Engineer said: 'I am very curious. Please tell me more about

this wall.'

The Genie explained, 'Well, it's about 5000 feet high, 500 feet thick

and completely surrounds the country. Nothing can get in or out - it's

virtually impenetrable.'

The Aussie engineer sat down, cracked open a beer, smiled and said,

'Fill it with water'.........(g) ?.HUh?

I believe the author of said joke feels that those countries may be the source of much evil in the world and saw fit to contain/end it.

Please note that this does not necessarily express my own world views!!!!!

Basically, the Aussie engineer, like some backwards members of my family, want that entire area of the world "wiped off the map" because of course, "them people" are the evil of the world, and if they were, say, drowned and their part of the world turned into an ocean like in this joke it would be all flowers and picnics and puppies. :D

I get these kinds of jokes all of the time from my Aunt and Uncle. This one is nowhere near as bad as they can get though.

I do see a certain amount of humour in them,but I have some quite close and dear friends in those countries.There are still a lot of good people in the world.Irrespective of colour or creed.

I hope I'm not being too outspoken in my beliefs?.:)

Nah, not at all. :D

At the worst, they are eye-roll worthy. I'm not one to get offended by jokes at all.

I may be a terrible person but I found that amusing xD I've heard that one before I think and it made me laugh then.

That's the basic idea though, he thinks if they all drowned then peace will be forever in the world.

Not at all a romantic idea haha

Jassy,
Reading this and the comments really made me smile. Not so much about the contents of the actual joke but about what people saw first.
As an Aussie, this first thing that came to mind was that it seemed very 'Aussie' to take the easy way out of anything. We (as a general rule) are a very laid back and easy going lot over here. Being geographically distant can give us a slightly skewed look on life. (Hence the lateral thinking) The fact is that there's a number of Aussie soldiers involved in the conflict in the middle east that would probably rather not be there but would rather be home with a beer and this seems like the eaay way out.
I saw it more as an inditement on my nationality than anything else and it certainly brought a chuckle.

Yeah "tinnies" are still around, although "stubbies" are probably more popular. Certainly in my house at least, they prefer the glass bottles.

Rest up and get better.

And you should have a reply to your message.
