It's often said about the coins and the history they have seen.. how many hands they have passed through.. all the stories attached. You see it said "If only they could talk to tell of the times".

Yeah well...  if they could and had a Chinese accent you would know it was a fake.

$5.75 a thread ?  Hmmmm ... do we get a bulk discount?
Could end up being heaps more than you expected.

Thats the funny thing.

Oh yes ... money is a huge bio hazard. Coins and notes.
Always wash your hands after counting out a till !
You can actually feel and see the filth on your hands.

I always errr when a Butcher takes or returns change after handling raw meat.
Think about it.   Sorry.. off topic.. NOT funny at all.

I've actually seen worse in Kalgoorlie when Bar staff known as 'skimpies' have picked G strings out of their bum cracks.. then handed you a drink in a glass and your change.
Thats kinda funny in an ironic way cos they are supposed to be attractive.

Back in the 80's, the heyday of the huge cocaine usage era, large numbers of greenbacks contained trace amounts of the powdery substance.
But NO ONE ever went to jail for possession under color of the "Drug War".

Just think where some of that money the butcher has been handeling has been before he picks up your meat.

And must agree that handeling money is grotty, so I will do it for everyone.
Seriouly when handeling a large amount your hands get dirty, sticky and stink, money is gross

Tello,

The term Yankee here is given to any resident of the Unites States, I know that that is not tha accepted thing in the US and i have got into hot water on a few occasions for calling an American a Yank

I have been to the Yankee areas of the US and there too they look on the term as demeaning

By the way we call a lot of American tourists 'septics', septic=septic tank which is rhyming slang for Yank  ;D

But you aint a Septic you have been redeemed by the metamorphosis that you are undergoing here  ;D

Me too Poddy - I dont understand why some dont like being called a Yankee - its just slang.  I know the term goes back to the Civil war - but gees time to move on.  One of their baseball teams is the NY Yankees - so it cant be that offensive cant it

Title: Re: *** The Coinez Humor thread ~ show us your funny side ***
Post by: Poddy on October 22, 2009, 06:15:48 PM
It aint offensive but a lot of Yanks, unlike our Tello, are offended by the slightest things, I had some fun when I was over there to see how far I could push it before they showed their feelings (I did wear a bullet proof vest just in case though)

Baptising an Irishman

A man is stumbling through the woods, totally drunk, when he comes upon a preacher baptising people in the river.
He proceeds to walk into the water and subsequently bumps into the preacher.
The preacher turns around and is almost overcome by the smell of alcohol,
whereupon he asks the drunk, "Are you ready to find Jesus?"
The drunk shouts, "Yes, oi am."
So the preacher grabs him and dunks him in the water.
He pulls him up and asks the drunk, "Brother have you found Jesus?"
The drunk replies, "No, oi haven't found Jesus."
The preacher shocked at the answer, dunks him into the water again for a
little longer.
He again pulls him out of the water and asks again, "Have you found Jesus
me brother?"
The drunk again answers, "No,oi I haven't found Jesus."

By this time the preacher is at his wits end and dunks the drunk in the water again --- but this time holds him down for about 30 seconds and when he begins kicking his arms and legs he pulls him up.

The preacher again asks the drunk, "For the love of God have you found Jesus?"




The drunk wipes his eyes and catches his breath and says to the preacher,
"Are you sure dis is where he fell in?"

One year, a husband decided to buy his
mother-in-law a cemetery plot as a Christmas gift.

The next year, he didn't buy her a gift.
When she asked him why, he replied,
"Well, you still haven't used the gift I bought you last year!"

And that's how the fight started..

Jake was dying. His wife sat at the bedside.

He looked up and said weakly:

'I have something I must confess.'

'There's no need to,' his wife replied.

'No,' he insisted,

'I want to die in peace.

I slept with your sister, your best friend,
her best friend, and your mother!'

'I know,' she replied.

'Now just rest and let the poison work.'

Define: "yanky".

Correct me if I'm wrong Tello...me grandmother was a Yankee.

IN America...Yankee is what Southerner's Called Northerners during the civil war..probably still the same today...so In the US...Yankee is gonna have a different meaning to here....they also have the New York Yankee's so if you're into baseball, (a different kind of civil war, called sports) and you're a yankee fan, then you might well be a northerner? 

Here, Yank is used to refer to American's in General...a Confederate might take offense though who knows...is the civil war over yet Ron?

My wife and I were watching "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" while we
were in bed.
I turned to her and said, 'Do you want to make love?'
'No,' she answered.
I then said, 'Is that your final answer?'
She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying 'Yes.'
So I said, 'Then I'd like to phone a friend.'

I backed off with the term 'sepo' that you usually hear all over Australia.
We have heaps in common anyway. We all grew up here watching American TV programs over and over and we even had a President deciding that we would get into a silly war for no good reason too.

Depends on the demographics.... and what they have been using before they turn up. Somewhat of a problem given the shift in drugs used in the community due to workplace testing regimes here. Huge problem in some notorious areas of Perth.  Very difficult to predict behaviour, although 'reputation' always raises red flags... with 'known' locals that is.
Blow in's are the problem.... heaps expected in the next few days.

I am obliged to be totally and deadly serious in this thread, as I'm not a real Coinee.

Two men walked into a bar.

The tallest of the two leaned his elbows upon the counter, and said in a low hissing voice, "Two glasses of milk, please."

The barman, a rough-tough-multi-tattooed type, said loudly, "Sorry, mate, we only serve strong drinks here."

The smaller of the two men sighed. "Ferdinand," he said to his taller friend, "you never learn, do you?" Turning to the barman, the smaller man continued, "Two glasses of FULL CREAM milk."

When an Aussie Calls an American a Yank, they are doing the same as calling someone a pom or a coconut.  It's a slang term originating from Septic Tank = Yank....Old Aussie slang was like that......
e.g.
Hit the Frog and Toad = Hit the Road,
Have a Captain Cook = Have a look
Dad 'n' Dave  =   (shave)
dead horse  =   (sauce)
dog 'n' bone =   (telephone)
dog's eye =    (meat pie)
Got the Jimmy Brits  = (the shites)
Khyber Pass   = (arse)
mallee root  =   (prostitute)
reg grundies =   (undies)

When American's use the term Yankee, it refers to baseball or Northerners....not a slang term like here.

Tello, this link will save ya in an emergency...lol.

The legend of Danaë ought to be a hot favourite for all these money-loving coinees. The very image (http://www.theoi.com/Gallery/K1.12.html) of all of that lovely, lovely gold raining down on one must be well-nigh irresistible.

What a let-down to discover it was only Zeus being sneaky and randy...

I think few would know of the tale. Some may seek to understand and expand their knowledge.
We can all do that.

Perhaps this one is better know:  370266286669

Very annoying that listing to me. This is another reason why I lack humor sometimes.
Doesn't say if an original or repo./bookplate and I'm sure I saw that seller sold another of the same days ago.
If it's a bookplate it is worth the cost of the frame. An original would have come from a folio published in 1913.  These get broken down for single leaves... sold framed or unframed that do have some value.  
Secondly the category its in is wrong AND... Of all the listings there I see no true botanical artworks.

*sigh*  Not funny.

if we were out for the day and had to go to the loo, my mum always used to say, we're going to spend a penny.  In Sydney during the 50s and 60s, you had to put a penny in the slot to get the door open.  bad luck if you didn't, lol. ;D

So if you aren't old enough to have known that, you do now!

How do you know when you're staying
in a redneck motel?
When you call the front desk and say,
I gotta leak in my sink, and the
clerk replies, 'Go ahead'.

It certainly happens frequently enough to be recognisable as a piece of black humour...

COIN VERSION

Just purchased:

Collector: Yes! At last. It was so hard to endure the wait.
Coin: Do you want to swap me for another coin?
Collector: NO! Don't even think about it.
Coin: Do you respect my provenance?
Collector: Of course! Over and over!
Coin: Have you ever secretly doubted my authenticity?
Collector: NO! Why are you even asking?
Coin: Will you put up a photo of me and extol my uniqueness?
Collector: Every chance I get!
Coin: Will you dip me?
Collector: Are you crazy? I'm not that kind of collector!
Coin: Are you an honest seller who'd never DREAM of producing cheap fakes?
Collector: Yes...
Coin: Oh, adored collector!

(backwards)... the end of the coin romance...

I find the money collecting concept unique... you save money...to buy money...to one day sell the money...for more money...than you paid for the money...originally... fascinating.
