Another Dumb Polish Joke
(4 votes, average: 3.5 out of 5)
Loading ...During his last visit to the United States, Pope John Paul II was interviewed by Barbara Walters for one of her TV specials. In the interview, Ms. Walters asked the Pope if he had any pet peeves. The Pope nodded and said, “I have two.”
“Can you tell us what they are?” asked Ms. Walters.
“Certainly,” said the Pope. “The first would be those stupid Polish jokes. These jokes are really demeaning and insulting to us Poles. We are portrayed as slow and unintelligent which is so far from the truth. Did you know that the great scientist Marie Curie was born a Pole?”
“Of course I do,” replied Ms. Walters. “If I were in your shoes, I would feel bad as well. What’s your other pet peeve, your Holiness?”
“Those M&M candies.”
“Why M&M’s?” wondered Ms. Walters.
“Because I have a hard time cracking open the shells before I can get to the chocolate.”
