    Q: How many shots of whiskey does it take to kill an Irishman?

    A: Zero. If whiskey can kill a person then they aren't Irish.

    In Australia you always get 'Latest Irish Inventions' jokes. As in - Heard of the latest Irish invention? Ejector seat for helicopter. Flyscreen windows for submarine. Ashtray for motorbike. Etc etc. Not very funny but theme is that the Irish are stupid.

    I assume this humour comes from England. Even though we have a large percentage of population with Irish heritage - which is why Catholicism is dominant religion here - the greatest influence on our culture has always been England. I cant imagine the Irish tell each other Irish invention jokes. English culture influence on Australia is why Irish invention jokes are so common in Australia. Even though most of us are Irish. Which is funny.

    An Irishman was going to get a vasectomy so he went out and bought a tuxedo...so "he'd look impotent".

    Ever heard the saying about someone who tells a lot of tall tales?

    He is windier than a sack full of Irish ass holes.

    Absolutely. This is what the moslems dont get. It's why the Americans dont understand English humour. In the UK, we all take the mickey out of ourselves and each other. The Irish are thick bog dwelling paddies. The Welsh shag sheep and form committees at the drop of a hat. The scots are mean and pessimistic, and the english are snobs, council house chavs or football hooligans. And if you live here, we'll take the piss out of you as well, except moslems have no sense of humour, which conflicts with our right to mock and ridicule your religion, just as you are free to mock and ridicule us. And thats because when we were kids we were taught "sticks and stone my break my bones but words will never hurt me". Plus that's why all the best comedy comes from. All comedy is based on ridicule or the ridiculous.

    Its called banter.



    On the other hand, since the Australians are genetically and culturally very close to the English, i dont understand why their contribution to humour is so small - all i can think of is Barry Humphries, Paul Hogan, and Kath and Kim. And ofc Clive James, a man whos word power is truly god like.
