Here is a sardarji joke.

What do you call a sardarji joke that is not true?

Hi

Post by Sandeep »

Ha ha. Good to see Jay post some jokes here. Jay yes I have heard about google, but out of all the stories why did Dhruv pick up lawyer story? I think he must have heard of this before. And by the way Jay, you joked on Sardarji's :D , I enjoyed it but watch out for gvh :mad:. He might post a joke on malloooos. Come on gvh. my full support for you.

haha im not a sadarji if that is what you meant...although Jay's interpretation of "gvhvhg" definitley sounds sadarji! :wink:

I would post a few sadarji jokes myself, (i have some good ones :D ) but wouldnt that be running the same risk that sandeep did when postinga pakistani joke? I know, I know, Sadarji's are used to being constantly ridiculed :D ...but still...i dont know...what do you guys think?

Well gvh, I asked the same question to Bsharma. Wouldn't it be similiar to pakistani joke? He termed my post on pakistan maths question paper as irresponsible :( . Well but jay's Sardarji joke is definitely not like other sardar ji jokes. No where it sounded insulting sardarji's. I guess that joke is pretty fine. Jay is clever :D . Though he must have known many better sardarji jokes, he posted this to be out of controversy :damn: .

By the way, gvh are you punjabi or not?

Sandeep, I hope that you will understand the reasons why I felt that your earlier (and deleted) post about Pakistanis was inappropriate. It characterized Pakistanis to be criminals, terrorists, and Pakistani men having more than 4 wives, etc. Presently there is tremendous amount of tension between many people of the muslim religion and leaders of USA/UK, etc. Muslims are not going to find your jokes about them very funny especially in this day and age. If one of them had posted a message about your jokes about them in some discussion forum catering to people of that faith, it is possible that someone could have taken enough offense to vandalize our forum.

Hi

Bsharma, I know what you are saying. I agree with you. But the one I posted talked about bad pakistanis and not good ones. There are terrorists and 4 wives thing in every country. Don't you think terrorists exist in India or America or Japan. Terrorists are every where. If I would have posted about terrorists in Japan, it would have made no sense. Taking something serious and making it laughable is what is Joke. And most of the practical Jokes in day to day life are so. But the way we looked at it made the joke serious. Since it is pakistan it made it look bad.

But anyway I can understand what you are saying. It is not good to post materials which vandalise this forum irrespective of the motive or inehrent meanings of that post. I am completely with you. :D . I am only trying to say why I thought that was just a joke and not directed against pakistanis.

If you only intented to talk about 'bad Pakistanis' you should be more careful with your words ........ you said 'Pakistani Maths paper' which implies that you are talking about all Pakistanis

a Bush joke:
Dick Cheney walks into the presidents office and sees him jumping around.

"What's the matter, Mr. President?" The Vice President inquired.

"Nothing at all, boss. I just done finished a jigsaw puzzle in record time!" Bush replied.

"How long did it take you?"

"Well, the box said '3 to 5 Years' but I did it in a month!"

THE PROBLEM WITH GIRLS

ROMANCE MATHEMATICS

Smart man + smart woman = romance
Smart man + dumb woman = affair
Dumb man + smart woman = marriage


OFFICE ARITHMETIC

Smart boss + smart employee = profit
Smart boss + dumb employee = production
Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion
Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime

SHOPPING MATH

A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she
doesn't need.

GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

HAPPINESS

To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a
little. To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try
to understand her at all.

LONGEVITY

Married men live longer than single men do, but married men are a lot
more willing to die.

PROPENSITY TO CHANGE

A woman marries a man expecting he will change,but he doesn't. A man
marries a woman expecting that she won't change,and she does.

DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE

A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

HOW TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BUGGING YOU ABOUT GETTING MARRIED

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings,poking me in the ribs and
cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started
doing the same thing to them at funerals.


Statuory Warning:
I dont want any hard feeling to come up.. plz ignore if you dont like the post.

By the way I made up that sardarji joke above, today. Copyright 2005 R.Jayakrishnan ... [saw Dhruv's comment on urban legend and thought of a new one, that's all]

gvhvhg is actually not a sardarji, I think - though we call him gurvinder virender harvinder virbalbir harbhajan gill.

Oh, I do know a lot of sardarji jokes -- here:

What do you call a sardarji who lives under water? -- Jalandhar Singh

What do you call him if he can breathe? -- Jalandhar Singh Gill.

What do you call a ardarji who can't drink hard liquor? -- Justbeer Singh

What do you call the last sardarji on the face of the earth? -- Justone Singh

What do you call a sardarji who works for international law enforcement? -- Interpol Singh (this is copyright 1989 R.Jayakrishnan)

[Hope none of that was offensive .. I withhold the offensive ones! .. Somethings tells me that I posted these in some other thread]

haha yes that is what i said

ok then:

-i edited that one out

An unfortunate sadarji by the name of Retender Singh Nanga went to get his name officially changed. When he got to the Name Changing Bureau the woman behind the desk said, "What would you like to change it to?"
The sadarji thought about it for awhile and then he said, Harbhajan Singh Nanga!

gvhvhg -- now THAT is an offensive sardarji joke, about the snowman. I should probably edit that out. Basically that plays on an unfortunate and incorrect stereotype - and the Sikhs do object to it.
