We Newfoundlanders are known for our sometimes "tongue-in-cheek" Jokes, being able to make fun at ourselfes. Of course the "Mainland" Canadians don't have our sense of humour and think that our jokes are SIMPLE. Well we tell them the reason our jokes are simple is so that the mainlanders can understand them. Here is a sample:
Two Newfie's went on a camping trip. After a good meal and a bottle of
wine they lay down in their tent for the night and went to sleep. Some
hours later, one of them awoke and nudged his faithful friend awake.
"Bryce, look up at the sky and tell me what you see," said Lloyd. Bryce
replied, "I see millions and millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?" Lloyd questioned. Bryce pondered for a
minute. "Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of
galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
Astrologically, I observe Saturn is in Leo. Logically, I deduce that
the time is approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, I can see
that God is all-powerful and that we are small and insignificant.
Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day
tomorrow".
"Is that all?" Lloyd asked. "Yes," Bryce replied. "Why, am I missing
something?"
Lloyd was quiet for a moment, then spoke softly :
“Bryce you dickhead. Someone has stolen the tent."
