Irish man goes to the doctor

Just want to state that DH family is from Irish extraction and they thought it was funnyGrin.

An Irishman goes to the Doctor with an anal irritation....

"Dactor, it's me ahrse. I'd loik ya ta teyhk a look, if ya woot".

So the doctor gets him to drop his pants and takes a look.
"Incredible" he says, "It looks as though there is a £20 note lodged up here."

Tentatively he eases the twenty out of the man's bottom, and then another £20 pound note appears.

"This is amazing!"exclaims the Doctor. ''What do you want me to do?"

"Well fur gadness sake teyhk it out, man!"shrieks the patient.

The doctor pulls out the twenty pound note and another appears, and another and another and another... This goes on and on until finally a last note comes out; but that is only a tenner.

"Ah Dactor, tank ya koindly, dat's moch batt er. Just out of interest,
How moch was in dare den?"

The Doctor counts the pile of cash.

"That is 99 twenty pound notes and a tenner - £1,990 exactly."

"Ah, dat'd be roit den," says the Irishman,

"I knew I wasn't feeling two grand."

I tod an irish joke the other day on here, and got slaughtered for being racist.

good joke thoughGrin

pesme · 10/05/2006 21:04

sh*te joke and it is offensive.

motherinferior · 10/05/2006 21:07

It's a racist joke. I am quite seriously considering reporting it, actually.

BudaBabe · 10/05/2006 21:17

Quite funny.

Dreadful accent though!

And I AM Irish. We are known for our ability to laugh at ourselves. And at those trying to do Irish accents.

Avalon · 10/05/2006 21:21

This joke was sent to dh by a work colleague, who finds it funny.

The colleague is Irish.

pesme · 10/05/2006 21:23

i think being irish or not is irrelevent. i can laugh at myself as much as the next nationality but at the risk of sounding abit obvious would you be laughing if this was about a jamaican or a chinese person?

out of context (i.e. the pub) were speedymama may be obviously not racist or anti irish this joke comes across as just that.

Aero · 10/05/2006 21:24

lol - that tickled me and I'm Irish too!

DumbledoresGirl · 10/05/2006 21:31

Of course it is funny! And not at all racist either, in fact it could almost be told about any man in any country except the Irish tend to use the word grand more than others ....maybe.

Made me smile anyway, and, although I am not Irish, they are my favourite nationality!

maltesers · 10/05/2006 21:45

Well worth reading...love the Irish and their mad sense of humour.! Good one..

Pinotmum · 10/05/2006 21:50

My parents are Irish and my dad would laugh at that. My mum would say it was terrible though Wink Now who has a Scottish joke - dh is Scottish and likes to be offended Grin Don't mention football or world cup though Wink

Mhamai · 28/09/2006 00:51

Not the least bit offended and I'm Irish, crap joke tho imo but hey each to their own.

Greensleeves · 28/09/2006 00:55

Greensleeves · 28/09/2006 01:01

tinbus · 28/09/2006 20:30

Gingeme · 28/09/2006 20:34

Thats brilliant. My Dad would love that alot of his family live in Ireland.

lovingbarney · 28/09/2006 21:18

funny but not offensive in any way we have a great sense of humour keep them coming!!!???

Having said that thought i might share what happened in shopping centre here. With another irish buddy and when we got to the till the oh i don't know definately asian mix assistant said i was buying underwear, sort of sexy, near valentine's day @he's going to love you in this?' I said yes he would if he was here. bla bla been away with work for quite some time etc,,,,,, and she said ' it won't matter what you are wearing a potato sack will look good.'

well, i could not resist saying'"Sorry but i take great offence at that derogatory remark about potato sack being irish and all that is just politically incorrect for you to say that."

well, she nearly had a heart attack. Then realised i was joking and laughed so loud it was so funny. suppose you had to be there but just thought i would share.

BudaBabe · 28/09/2006 21:22

Mhamai - you are taking the Irish clique a bit to extremes raking up old jokes!!!

Greensleeves · 29/09/2006 00:17

Have you heard the one about the Irish caterpillar?

Greensleeves · 29/09/2006 00:18

It turned into a frog.
