They come upon this large painting of what seems to be 3 naked black men sitting on a park bench, but the one in the middle has a pink penis. The 2 oldie goldies study this artwork for some time but still cannot fathom the meaning of the picture. Finally they spot the gallery curator and ask him to explain what the picture really signifies. The curator rather pompously explains at length that it's the latest artwork of a Scottish artist and the pink penis signifies the emasculation of the black race through it's history of oppression from European colonialists etc. etc. etc.
After a long and patronising lecture the curator leaves them, but the 2 pensioners are still staring at the painting with a bewildered expression when they are approached by a man who has overheard the explaination by the curator.
"Do ye want to know what it really means"
"And how would you know what this means?" they ask.
"I'm the man who created this piece of art" he says with a pronounced Scottish accent.
"You see," he continued " it's really quite simple, all it shows is 3 Scottish coal miners sitting on a bench for a break and the one in the middle popped home for his lunch."

Yeah, see, this was actually funny. Doesn't go the epithet road, doesn't assert any kind of superiority of one ethnic background over another. It just plays on misconceptions and interpretation of art. If I could give a thumbs up, it'd be on this post. But it's not like anyone cares about my approval anyway.

Just wanted to throw that out there. Thanks for sharing this Pedronicus.

A black guy, a jew and a spic walk into a bar. The barman says, "Get the f*ck out."

[the above joke uses racism for comic effect. If that offends you, don't read it.] *2*

Too late, I just talked to my black Jewish friend from Mexico and he hates your guts too.

Once again, you're completely wrong. It is YOUR voice describing the people with epithets, not the bartenders. It is not a joke on the bartender at all. If anything, it just communicates that you share the opinion of the intolerant bartender.
