Religious mis-understanding
|
| |
A Teacher was teaching a class about the death of Jesus. He asked the class if they knew the name of any woman that was present at the cross. A few hands went up, Mary and Mary Magdalene were mentioned by a few in the class. One boy had kept his hand up, so the teacher asked him did he know the name of any other woman that was there at the death of Jesus. He replied 'Rosemary!' The Teacher was at a loss of where the boy got Rosemary from. So the Teacher asked the boy, 'why do you think a woman called Rosemary was present at the death of Jesus' The boy simply answered, 'Well, she has a set of prayer beads named after her, so she must be important enough to be at the death of Jesus.'
Rosary beads, not Rosemary beads! |

A suit, when asked for change by a particularly unkempt vagrant;
"I'm sorry, I don't really care about you." |

Kids these days are out of control.

Two male teenagers were talking about a video game, when a middle-eastern guy gets on the tube and obviously catches the end of their conversation:
"Do you remember when I chucked that grenade at the iraqi and it hit him in the mouth?"
"Yeah mate, that was fucking wicked."
"He fell over and I shot him."
"Broke his dog's neck, too, the shitter."
"Where's Allah when you're knifing them in the stomach, eh?"
Eyebrows were raised. |

American tourist talking to Evening Standard vendor at Charing Cross.
Tourist: "Excuse me, Sir, can you direct me to the dead centre of London?"(probably looking for the plaque just along the road near Trafalgar Square)
Vendor: "Yes mate, Islington and St. Pancras cemetery*"
*The largest cemetery in London, so they say. |

Diversions on the tube
|
| |
Piccadilly Line tube train going west fairly late one evening .... the intercomm crackles, "Passengers for Heathrow are advised to change at Acton Town. This train has been diverted to Uxbridge. (pause) ... and if that pisses you off, it does me too; I'm going home."
The expected laughter from the passengers never came! Oh well, we are British? |
