Groaners to the people!
« on: September 28, 2004, 10:54:25 AM »
A couple were on a driving holiday through deepest Wales, and passed through
the town named Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
They were obviously having trouble trying to say the word and neither really knew the correct Welsh pronunciation. So they decided to stop for lunch in the town and maybe ask a local to say the name properly.

As they sat in the restaurant, the husband leaned over to talk to a young blonde girl sitting at the next table.

"Excuse me" said the man. "We were wondering if you could tell us the name of where we are. Could you pronounce it really slowly? Would you mind?"

The young blonde looked at the man in a slightly bemused way, leaned over towards him and said: "Burrrrrr...Gurrrrrr...Kiiiiiinnng"

Hmmm. I'm sure that one was in the original groaner's corner! If not, it should have been!

That sure is a groaner :-P

@Karlos

I can't remember it in the original Groaners.  I have the whole lot saved on my hd somewhere, I'll dig it out later and have a read :-D

Ah yes. A pretty young Welsh lass took the time once to teach me how to say that. I was a slow learner :-)

George Bush is going on holiday, and at the airport he's stood in line ready to check in (Bare with me on this) and theres a guy dressed head to foot in white with a long beard, now, being the fundie that he is, he taps the bloke on the shoulder, and asks:

"are you Mosis?"

The chap turns around, looks Bush up and down, hmphs, and turns back to face the front.

Bush, not liking this attitude is pretty indignant about this so taps the guy on the shoulder a second time and says:

"Look, I'm George dubya Bush, President of the United States of America, and I demand to know if you are Mosis!"

The guy, looking pretty miffed turns around and replies:

"Look bud, last time I talked to a bush I ended up bumming around in a desert for 40 years!"
