I from the US, just learned about these today, and had a chuckle.
an essex girl was driving down the A13 when her car phone rang. it was her boyfriend, urgently warning her “treacle, i just heard on the news that theres a car going the wrong way on the A13. please be careful!” “its not just one car!” said the essex girl “theres hundreds of them!”
As a feminist and a leftist, it’s ok to make jokes about people, or even specific groups of people, but it needs to be clever. If you can substitute the target of a joke with any non-specific group of people, it’s not really clever, nor funny.
I know some very funny jokes, where the main target needs to be “dumb”, but it isn’t about the target or target group. In my country the jokes would be about Belgians.
Last week, a Cessna crashed into a Belgian cemetery. So far they’ve found 500 dead, and they’re still searching.
