$50 Lesson
I recently asked my neighbors' little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do? '

She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.'

Her parents beamed with pride.

'Wow...what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'But you don't have to wait until you're President to do that! You can come over to my house and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and trim my hedge, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house.'

She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked, 'Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50? '

I said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party.'

Her parents still aren't speaking to me.


(ITS A FRIGGIN JOKE!)

A couple of us were talking about what sort of collective nouns could be used for different nationalities (in an entirely cliched and non-PC kind of way) and, being Aussies, we started with (for us) the obvious "Mob of Australians". We then thought up these:

a scrum of Kiwis
a queue of English
a pint of Irish
a pride of Germans
a clutch of Italians
a school of Chinese
a gaggle of Greeks
a litre of Russians
a herd of Americans
a line of Columbians
a parade of Brazilians
a running of Spaniards

Any more ideas?

A line of Columbians :lol:

A knot of Thais.

A waxing of Brazilians.

A reef of Jamaicans.

A pot of Dutch.

A many-many of Yemenis.

A floe of Eskimos

A spear of Uncontacted Indigenous Peoples

A mess of Iraqis

A scatter of nomads

A slew of Huns

A zamboni of Canadians

A sneer of French
A stuffing of Turks
A manga of Japanese
A shelter of Swiss

or A gourmet of French....

A riot of Londoners
A cockahoop of Cocknies
A luv of Liverpudlians
