Even More Un-PC Than Me
I was discussing upcoming holiday plans with Alec, specifically the Eastern Europe part of the trip. We were considering the cost viability of a railpass by trying to see if all the places we wanted to see were actually on good train routes.
Alec: Well, we all know you can definitely get to Auschwitz by train!
Me: ……
Alec: ……
Me: Okay, next topic of conversation.
That horrific classic… “My grandfather died in Auschwitz.” “Oh, that’s terrible.” “Yeah, he fell out of the guard tower.”
Oh God, I remember that. Someone used it in a debate once, didn’t they?
Yup. And one I heard the other day – “What do you do with Jews who have a short attention span? You send them to a concentration camp.” I’m told that comes from South Park – unsurprisingly…
Now THAT is terrible.
german jokes have improved a lot since ireland joined the EU. for example.. this is the german interpretation of a “classic” irish joke
“paddy irishman walks into a bar,
beacuse he is an alcoholic and is destroying his family und breaking his mothers heart”
laugh now….
That was actually quite funny! Who are you and what have you done with Brian?
