"Bloody Yanks"

The following is the transcript of an ACTUAL radio conversation in
October 1995, between a US Navy ship off the coast of England, and some British authority. The transcript was released by the MoD on 10/10/95.

BRITS: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the South, to avoid a collision.

AMERICANS: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the North, to avoid a collision.

BRITS: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision.

AMERICANS: This is the Captain of US Navy ship. I say again, divert
YOUR course.

BRITS: Negative. I say again. You will have to divert your course.

AMERICANS: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS LINCOLN! THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES' ATLANTIC FLEET. WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE, THREE CRUISERS, AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND
THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH. THAT'S 15 DEGREES NORTH,
THAT'S 15 DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER MEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.

ok, seeing as we're telling mildly racist (but not over-stepping the mark of course) jokes, heres an old favourite :

Englishman, Irishman, Scotsman wanting to Join al Quaida,
after several physical and mental tests,
the three men are led into a room,
"Ok" the terrorist staff sargeant says,
"I want you to take this gun, and kill whoever you see in that room"
the three men look shaken, but determined to pass this final test
the englishman takes the gun and goes in,
he comes out shaking, and to the sargeant he says quietly
"I'm sorry, I didn't have what it took, I WILL NOT kill my parents"
He is asked to leave the camp
the scotsman goes in with the gun, to try and do what the englishman could not,
he also comes out shaking, and says to the sargeant
"No, no, I do not want to join that badly, you're all sick"
He is also told to pack up and leave
Finally, the irishman takes the weapon and enters the room
After several minutes he returns through the door, with blood all over his face, hands, and on the gun
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED???" barks the terrorist sargeant
"Some git took the bullets out"
