It is.

Yep.

Screw political correctness, that was a good joke.

Not a bad joke, but not best told during the swearing in of provincial cabinet ministers.

jaylectricity: It used to be. It's pretty old now.

Oh look everyone, a joke hipster!

It's a good joke.

And fark outsourced call centers. Think your call center staffed with bottom rung Americans is bad? Nope, it's a farking operational, working churning out ultra-operation compared to what happens in India.

I work for a fortune 10 company that uses a LOT of Indian "consultants". They are worthless, useless, terrible people that you literally have to threaten daily to get ANY actual work out of them. They create more work than they actually do.(note that I don't think this about Indians in general).

I have literally told clients to just keep calling back until they get someone useful, IE: not an Indian contractor.

Oh how I miss Crosbie poking fun at Sheila Copps in the House of Commons. Good times.

"Pass the tequila, Sheila, lay down and love me again."

Exactly.

After all these years on the receiving end of jokes, I think Newfoundlanders have a free pass.

I laughed at that joke before it was funny.

I chuckled too.

Lighten up, Francis!

iStig: To be fair, that's a pretty decent joke.

Yes.

What is the joke? I don't get it.

Well, I've never heard it before. And I, also, LOLed.

If it bends, it's funny.

why yes, it is blurry.

I laughed. Hadn't heard it before.

A quote FTFA

"If anyone who thinks the joke is offensive, or there's something wrong with it, well I'll apologize to them, sure. If that's what they think. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings,"

This guy's a farking rock star.

Indian contractors I've worked with (stateside) have been competent and productive, though one has ego bigger than neongoats' mom.

Call centers over there, though... When I tried to arrange a bank transfer, and the guy asked me to spell Delaware, I decided to abort.

A shame... It spoiled my deal with Mrs. Abacha.

Hector Remarkable: I have not felt or heard these kinds of jokes here in Newfoundland," said student Wasiq Waqar.

That's because 95% of the jokes Newfies hear are making fun of them.

/ 99% of those are just Irish jokes, with Irish replaces Newfie

jaylectricity: It used to be. It's pretty old now.

First I heard it.

Funny joke

One must expect naught but class from that right-wing oaf, John - pass the tequila, Sheila - Crosbie.

I am SO GRATIFIED that, to this point, not one single humourless PC pedant has posted a finger-wagging, sanctimonious condemnation of the man.

I do hope that no such comments are being posted as I write this as I will look really stupid.

Dammit.

It's not like he drew a zombified picture of someone with a bullet hole in their head. Then there would be hell to pay!

I'm speaking exclusively of ones "over there". And I think all of them have ego's bigger than my mom, or yours. I blame the caste system =p They think they are all Brahman and treat everyone they associate with as untouchables =p

Good stuff. I wonder how long before Dane Cook lifts it from him

Apparently high school chicks are hot in Newfoundland..

/have a seat, etc.

The joke is around 5:20 in the first video on this page:

There is actually a string of jokes starting at 4:15 that are all pretty amusing, especially as told by some 81 year old Canadian politician I've never heard of before.

When offensive is truly funny, funny wins.

Lighten up.

It's the funniest Extremely Poor Taste joke I've heard since Gilbert Gottfried spoke about his layover at the Empire State Building.
