bad day

[mic-d]

My German friend was returning home from doing the grocery shopping when he suddenly realised he forgot to visit the butchers. With a deep sigh and a heavy heart he realised it was going to be a bad day, up ahead he had to take a turn for the wurst.

IMO that is not even a joke by any standard. Rather it's a stereotyped racist insult.

Is that worser than wurst

Surely you cannot be serious

Yes, I am very serious. I find so called jokes with either sexist or racist overtones obnoxious. The other so called smutty joke from this poster about a GPS in his undies is just as bad.

Further in my opinion neither should also be posted on a forum that prides itself that even schoolchildren are allowed to get on using school computers. This makes a mockery of what the owners want to have.

Maybe you should re read the sticky " Keep it clean". before posting.

I fail to see how that joke is racist.
Making a pun on the name of a type of sausage is in no way racist. Lame maybe or even Sausagist but IMO not racist.

How about a re-write...


An Australian from somewhere in the outback was walking home from a shopping trip when he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to go the butcher shop to pick up his german sausage.It was then that he took a turn for the worst.



How 'bout that? still racist? still a bad joke though.

I agree talking about a sausage type can hardly be racist??

No but putting Germans and wurst together is racist.

Please don't take all this so seriously.

Awwww. . . . come on, . . . . that is as racist and bad as the one about, "How can you tell an Italian aircraft from other aircraft? . . . . . Look for the hair under the wings"
BTW I am italian.

If you can find me German that was offended by that then i will agree with you, otherwise I will have to call you surely again!

Which IMO is just as bad.

And I take this seriously as I'm offended by these type of so called jokes.
