VB in Campbelltown? What state do you live in?

Mr Fawlty
Classic. I lived in campbelltown for 12yrs and in that time had 3 cars stolen,one burnt out in the driveway a motor bike stolen and house broken into so there is a lot more trueth in the above mentioned joke than people realise. Still have friends there and they dont have a lot to good things to say about the place. So speaking from experience from someone who lived there I dont see how people can get upset with the joke.

Gees it was only a bit of fun.
I always thought Aussies could laugh at themselves....guess not.

pmacks, Do you think he sat down and wrote that joke himself?

If we cannot laugh at ourselves than what is the point of life?
If he had wrote that about my town of Bundaberg I could not have cared less.

'hole area'???

I think Mr Fawlty may well have been correct in his assessment of the literacy skills generally displayed by the demographics of the area!

Or was that just a subliminal reference to the geographical disposition of the suburb?

Fair enough. I didn't think he added the last line himself.
I suppose it is fairly derogatory all in all but I would like to think I can look at it from a neutral perspective and not take it too personally.
I like to think I have pretty thick skin as far as jokes go.

hahahahaha...i thought it was funny...tis a pity when we cant laugh at ourselves...

pmacks,
Lighten up mate! I hate to rain on anyone's parade but that joke is hardly original. I've read that one with varying locales, Suburban Melbourne, Brisbane, Cairns and Darwin. It was even circulated with a Mt.Druitt theme. The joke itself is varied according to the time of year or upcoming or past events.

Countless jokes have been placed here about blondes - no-one has ever written about blondes being offended by them ????

Just to get the topic back into order ;-)

How yodelling began!

Many years ago a man was travelling through the mountains of Switzerland.

Nightfall was rapidly approaching and he had nowhere to sleep. He went up to a farmhouse and asked the farmer if he could spend the night.

The farmer told him that he could sleep in the barn.

As the story goes, the farmer's daughter asked her father, "Who is that man going into the barn?"

"That fellow travelling through," said the farmer. "needs a place to stay for the night, so, I told him he could sleep in the barn."

The daughter said, "Perhaps he is hungry." So she prepared him a plate of food for him and then took it out to the barn.

About an hour later, the daughter returned. Her clothing dishevelled and straw in her hair. Straight up to bed she went.

The farmer's wife was very observant. She then suggested that perhaps the man was thirsty. So she fetched a bottle of wine, took it out to the barn, and she too did not return for an hour. Her clothing was askew, her blouse buttoned incorrectly. She also headed straight to bed.

The next morning at sunrise the man in the barn got up and continued on his journey, waving to the farmer as he left.

When the daughter awoke and learned that the visitor was gone, she broke into tears. "How could he leave without even saying goodbye," she cried. "We made such passionate love last night!"

"What?" shouted the father as he angrily ran out of the house looking for the man, who by now was halfway up the mountain.

The farmer screamed up at him, "I'm going to get you! You had sex with my daughter!"

The man looked back down from the mountainside, cupped his hand next to his mouth, and yelled out.....

"LAIDTHEOLADEETOO"

Sparkie,
I find that joke really offensive!!!
I am a farmer and I know people who like swiss cheese that live near campbelltown.
How could you........

I'm laughing too at the Dislexica joke and I'm not offended but then I'm thick skinned.

or in your caes thin skinned cos your memory has escaped your brain

Who me??? Who are you again, I forgot.
By the way $646 for both bits. Probably best way to go. Recommended retail was over $900+

sounds like the way to go

Best one I have heard in a while.

hahahahaha

dont you mean campbelltown

A lesson could be leant here.
Ha ha ha ha ha
By the way Im a one eyed Collingwood supporter.

Oooooooooooooooo Bonz....You're gunna upset some poor sod who lives in Collingwood now.

Heck, is there anywhere that is NOT fair game in the country....hahahahaha

What about Rooty Hill, or Wonthaggi....there's a couple of good iconic Aussie names that ol' mate above might have friends living there.

Hell, did he get outa bed on the wrong side or what? But he did make a froydian (spelling) slip with his use of the word "hole"......hahahaha

yer I did pick up the hole in his arguement and chose to refrain ...... I think anywhere is fair game EXCEPT the small rural town in Bavaria, Germany, east of Titmondel, which is curiously named after a colloquialism for the wonderful act of love.

I just want to know who explained it to him and how long it took!

Quoting time in Winnie Blue's and/or VB Stubbies would be fine, we can translate.

We know that pmack is from Campbelltown and I do not wish to cast any aspersions on his character, but do you thing someone should tell him that he can post to each followup instead of a seperate reply when he wishes to repond.
I don't have the intestinal fortitude to do it.

he is from campbelltown Des...:)

So Nudie, he must be your neighbour then as Campbelltown is just next door isn't it. I knew you lived close to Paradise but I never saw the garden of Eden there.

lighten up guys

oldie but goodie

DANDENONG IS TO MAKE A BID FOR THE 2008 OLYMPIC GAMES In order to increase
the likelihood that the successful bidders will win at least some medals,
the competition has been somewhat modified. However, fierce competition
is expected from rival areas such as Cranbourne, Frankston, Broadmeadows,
Thomastown, Sunshine and Bayswater.

OPENING CEREMONY
The Olympic flame will be ignited by a petrol bomb thrown by a native of
the City wearing traditional flannelette shirt, jeans and moccasins with
his defacto wearing the traditional floral leggins and short top with
oversized stomach and fat backside.

THE EVENTS:

100 METRE SPRINT
Competitors will have to hold a VCR under one arm and a microwave under
the other and on the sound of the starting pistol a Police Dog will be
released 10 meters behind the athletes.

100 METRE HURDLES
As above with the added obstacles, car bonnets, hedges, garden fences and
walls.

HAMMER THROW
Competitors in this event may choose the type of hammer they wish to use
(claw, sledge ect.) the winner will be the one who can cause the most
grievous bodily harm to members of the public within the timeframe
allowed.

SHOOTING EVENTS
A strong challenge is expected from the men in this event. The first
target will be a moving police vehicle, the second targets will consist of
running bank Tellers, Video store Attendant and 24-hour service Station
Attendants.

BOXING
Entry to the boxing will be restricted to husband and wife teams and will
take place on Friday Night. The husband will be given 15 pots of VB at the
local pub followed by a quick peek in a lap-dancing venue. The wife will
be told not to make him any dinner when he gets home. She will be wearing
bike pants, boob tube and thongs.

CYCLING
The competitor will attend the nominated City skateboard area where they
will obtain a bicycle stolen from a Scotch College or Mentone Boys Grammar
student. They then will be racing against the clock. Bonus points will be
awarded should a helmet be obtained at time of theft.

MODERN PENTATHLON
Amended to include Robbery with Violence, Burglary, Unlawful Use of a
Motor Vehicle, Arson and Wilful Exposure.

MENS 50km WALK
Unfortunately this event will have to be cancelled, as organisers cannot
guarantee the safety of anyone walking the streets of Dandenong.

GYMNASTICS
The traditional 4-inch beam will be replaced by the strip of gutter
outside the Dandenong Hotel. This event will commence at closing time - we
expect some extremely difficult dismounts to be performed on the
apparatus. The floor routines will be held directly after this event at
the Dandenong Police Watchhouse.

CLOSING CEREMONY
Entertainment will include the local Torres Straight Islander group
accompanied by other local artists well known within the area. The
Olympic flame will be extinguished by the same local identities urinating
from the local spire in a cascading effect.The stadium will then be
boarded up before local athletes and entertainers break into it and remove
all copper piping, light fittings and air conditioners.
