Condom factory burns down in NZ
« on: December 23, 2011, 09:24 AM »
Helen  Clarke, Prime Minister of New Zulland, is awoken at 4am by the telephone.
 
Hillen, its the hilth Munister here.  Sorry to bother you at this hour but there is  an emergincy!!  I've jist received word thet the Durex factory en Aucklind hes burned to the ground.  It is istimated that the entire New Zulland supply of condoms will be gone by the ind of the week.
 
PM:   Shut !! The economy wull niver be able to cope with all those unwanted babies. W' ill be ruined.
 
Hilth Munister:  We're going to hef to shup some in from Brutain?
PM:   No chence.  The Poms will have a field day on thus one.

Hilth Munister:  What about Australia ?

PM:   I'll call Joolia Gizzard.  Tell her we need one million condoms, ten enches  long and eight enches thuck..

That way they'll continue to respect the "all blacks".
Three days later a delighted Hillen rushes out to open the boxes that arrived at the  Pist Office.

She finds one million condoms.  10 enches long, 8 enches thuck, all coloured green and gold with small writing on each one.

  MADE IN AUSTRALIA - SIZE:  MEDIUM

That's pretty funny, the punch line I mean.
 
Just as interesting, but not funny to me (being an American), is the use of bad grammer.  Are the people of New Zealand known for bad English in Australia?  In which case, I guess the whole story would be hilarious.
 
I was just curious... sorry for getting technical in a thread under Humour (imagine that, a nerd on a computer forum)...
I'm kupo for kupo nuts!

It isn't bad grammar - it's a piss-take on the NZ accent - read it out loud and you'll get it :)

It's quite funny, esp as even though I'm a yank I've had the benefit of working with Kiwi's!
