Rather, it is the joke that the most people find the least un-funny.As an example, I find the Belgian duck joke very unfunny (it just doesn't strike me I guess), and would therefore rate it poorly. The Hunter Joke I might give a 3 out of 5, and so did everybody else. There were other jokes I found funnier.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------As an American, I would say that the English were here first. Every succeeding wave of colonist and immigrant sought to distinguish themselves from the English. Sort of like innocent until proven guilty, you are Enlgish until proven Irish. Or as I like to think of it, we give you the benefit of the doubt. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> And American is a nationality. We are Americans. No one else claimed the title. They are happy being Canadians or Mexicans, or Brazillians. Besides, what else would you call us? Statesmen? US-ers? American works for me.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Piratecat and the Cannibal/ Clowns - That was funny!My favorite jokes don't translate well into messageboard-ese, because they are visual. LONG LIVE THE FARSIDE!!!! I'll give it a shot though.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------There were these 3 POWs held in an enemy camp when the camp's commander came to their cell. "We can't hold you anymore, you are going to have to be executed. However, you may choose the manner of your death. You may choose between being hanged and the guilletine."The first replied "I shall take the guilletine. It is quicker and less painful."Commander: "Very well." So the POW went off the to guilletine. He was put on the stand, they pulled the rope, the blade fell and nothing happened. Somehow, he was unharmed.The enemy soldiers got quite excited at this and pronounced that it was sign from God, and they released him.The second POW piped up "I too will take the guilletine. It is quicker and less painful."A bit shaken, the enemy Commander still complied. The POW was marched  to his death. He was placed upen the guilletine, they pulled the rope and the blade fell. Miraculously the POW was unharmed.Fearful that the wrath of God was upon them the enemy soldiers released the second POW before incurring more disfavor. Then the base commander turned to the last POW and said "So, what shall it be. Will you be hanged or guilletined?"The POW replied: "I shall be hanged. Your guilletine does not appear to be working."</blockquote>
