Trying to make us come alive over here!!

Everyone is so easily offended these days:

"In what aisle could I find the Polish sausage?"

The clerk looks up and says, "Are you Polish?"

The guy (clearly offended) says, "Well, yes I am. But let me ask you something.

If I had asked for Italian sausage, would you ask me if I was Italian?

Or if I had asked for German Bratwurst, would you ask me if I was German?

Or if I asked for a kosher hot dog would you ask me if I was Jewish?

Or if I had asked for a Taco, would you ask if I was Mexican?"

"If I asked for some Irish whiskey, would you ask if I was Irish?"

The clerk says, "Well, no, I probably wouldn't!"

With deep self-righteous indignation, the guy says, "Well then, why did you ask me

if I'm Polish because I asked for Polish sausage?"

The clerk replied, "Because you're in Home Depot!"

I hope I have not offended anyone of Polish descent! In fact, there may be some Polish roots

in my family, too! :o)

LOL--cAROL--I confess I might have had to go through the same 'processing' myself--those two need
to do something to distinguish one from the other more! LOL

I'm so glad I didn't really offend you, cAROL! I really do think ethnic jokes can be cruel, but the
reaction of this person was just so funny and all! Gulp! I could see me making such a mistake and getting
all indignant and all--(oh, man)--and then having to 'eat crow'!!!
