The Scotsman
A Scotsman was having coffee and croissants with butter and
jam in cafe when an English tourist, chewing gum, sat down next
to him. The Scotsman politely ignored the Englishman, who, nevertheless,started
up a conversation.
The Englishman snapped his gum and said, "You Scots folk
eat the whole bread?"
The Scot frowned, annoyed with being bothered during his breakfast,
and replied, "Of course."
The Englishman blew a huge bubble. "We don't. In England,
we only eat what's inside. The crusts we collect in a container,
recycle them, transform them into croissants and sell them to
Scotland." The Englishman had a
smirk on his face.
The Scotsman listened in silence.
The Englishman persisted. "Do you eat jam with the bread?"
Sighing, the Scot replied, "Of course."
Cracking his gum between his teeth, the Englishman said, "We
don't. In England, we eat fresh fruit for breakfast, then we
put all the peels, seeds, and leftovers in containers, recycle
them, transform them into jam and sell to Scotland."
The Scot then asked, "Do you have sex in England?"
The Englishman smiled and said, "Why of course we do."
The Scotsman leaned closer to him and asked, "And what
do you do with the condoms once you've used them?"
"We throw them away, of course."
Now it was the Scots turn to smile. "We don't. In Scotland,
we put them in a container, recycle them, melt them down into
chewing gum and sell them to England. Why do you think it's
called Wrigley's?"
