Polish Jewish Joke

[mikey4444]

Just seen this is the Guardian :::

A Polish Jewish woman aitcraft passenger get up in mid-flight to the USA and shouts

" Is there a Doctor on board ? !

A nice young man approaches her and says " I'm a Doctor. What is the problem ? "

She replies " Do you want to meet my daughter ? "

not too sure why this is Polish or Jewish...

[Old_Geezer]

Because of the Jewish mothers' reputation for looking out for 'good' matches for their offspring. Maybe Poles have the same rep ?

Here is another Jewish joke that Maureen Lipman told on Parkinson a few years ago.

Mrs Goldstein meets Mrs Goldberg in Waitrose.

Mrs Goldstein " You are not looking so good today my dear, so why don't you tell me what the matter is"

Mrs Goldberg " Oy...don't talk ! My husband came home last night and gave me 12 long-stem red roses "

Mrs Goldstein " Your husband gave you 12 long-stem red roses and thats a problem already ? "

Mrs Goldberg " But you don't know what I have to do when gives me these ruddy roses. I have go upstairs to the bedroom, take off all my clothes and lie on my back on the bed, with my legs open ! "

Mrs Goldstein " You haven't got a vase ? "

thanks, humbersloop. So it looks as if Jewish mothers are seen as pushy (by Jews, anyway) but maybe they see Poles as extra pushy?

Considering most jokes about Poles by non-Poles see them as stupid, I suppose that's something.

Anyway, I thought it was funny and I don't even speak Hebrew.

The Spanish one's funny too.

the Greek one made me chuckle too

German jokes (allegedly):

How many electricians does it take to change a light bulb?
One.

Why are there no aspirin in the jungle?
Because it would not be financially viable to attempt to sell pharmaceuticals in the largely unpopulated rainforest

I'll ask my Jewish Pole friend about it next time I see her.

Another old Jewish joke, this time courtesy of Woody Allen ::

Mrs Goldstein and Mrs Goldberg are coming out of a restaurant. Mrs Goldstein says " Did you ever taste such awful food ? " To which Mrs Goldberg replies " I know, and such small portions ! "
