6125 - Long joke Sunday


Two Irishmen walk into a pet shop in Dingle, they walk over to the bird section and Gerry says to Paddy, 'Dat's dem.' 

The owner comes over and asks if he can help them. 

'Yeah, we'll take four of dem dere little budgies in dat cage up dere,' says Gerry. 

The owner puts the budgies in a cardboard box. 

Paddy and Gerry pay for the birds, leave the shop, and get into Gerry's truck to drive to the top of the Connor Pass. 

At the Connor Pass, Gerry looks down at the 1000-foot drop and says, 'Dis looks like a grand place.' 

He takes two birds out of the box, puts one on each shoulder, and jumps off the cliff. 

Paddy watches as the budgies fly off and Gerry falls all the way to the bottom, killing himself stone dead. 

Looking down at the remains of his best pal, Paddy shakes his head and says, 'Fook dat. Dis budgie jumping is too fook'n dangerous for me!'

Did Gerry get an Irish wake?

Mike, there is no petshop in Dingle
At least when I was there a couple of years ago.

Mike said...

Kirk - Well, they poured some beer on him but it sadly didn't do anything.

Stu - Maybe they went out of business after Gerry died.

River - Another of your comments released from spam jail.
