(21,758 posts)I am of Polish ancestry and grew up in Chicago (World's second highest Polish population behind Warsaw) and I think I have heard every Polish joke in the world 2 or 3 times. The silver lining of the Trump election is that now everyone around the world has replaced stupid Polak jokes with stupid American jokes.
By the way.... Why do Americans have flat foreheads?
I forgot!

(40,416 posts)My mother was a Finn; my father, a Norwegian.
My father would say:
Ten thousand Swedes
marched through the weeds
to lick one sick Norwegian.
My mother would respond:
A smart Norwegian is the same thing as a stupid Finn.
It was always fun at my house. My father was a lifelong Republican (Eisenhower branch). My mother was a lifelong FDR democrat. The family joke was that they always cancelled each other's votes.
They also never, ever argued. I was very lucky to be born in such a family.
