Just for laugh

After having dug to depth of 1000 meters last year, Swedish scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 1000 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 1000 years ago.

Not to be outdone by the Swedes, in the weeks that followed, English scientists dug to a depth of 2000 meters and shortly after, headlines in the UK newspapers read: English Archaeologists have found traces of 2000 year old fibre optic cable and have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech digital communication network a thousand years earlier than the Swedes.

One week later, Malaysian newspapers reported the following: after digging as deep as 5000 meters in padi fields in Kedah, Malaysian scientists have found absolutely nothing. They therefore concluded that 5000 years ago Malaysia's inhabitants were already using wireless technology.

Wow, that's deep...........

[Salphur]

HAHAHAHAH... wireless! I like it.

Thanks for sharing!

[Thirteen]

we can try too. perhaps we can find a mac

great share!

[beetlejuice403]

LMAO... That's really unexpected... Never knew that wireless dated back as early as that... Wonders if it's "Draft-M" technology...

Thanks for sharing this

Tasteless joke. Just change the Punchline to 'Singapore' next time. Then it would be funny and politically correct.

[d2sign]

No harm but agree with bro StanChung, some how need to localize it.

[Ivan]

Hi, will take note on your comment in the future. Thanks for the feedback.

[hwchoy]

next time use: <insert your favourite country>

[StanChung]

The joke is ridiculous at best but a pretty lame joke as I've heard other versions of it between Aussies/Kiwi's/Americans/Europeans etc. but specifically writing it as 'padi fields in Kedah, Malaysian scientists...' is in poor taste.


Negro people can call other negros 'nigger' without causing racial tension and Chinese people calling themselves 'Ah Beng' or whatever Chinese slang. [not that name calling is advisable]


Excuse me if I am being over sensitive but please try to be more sensible so that we can all laugh together and not at another.

[Ivan]

Hi, Just to clarify that I have no means or intention to "make fun of " Malaysian, in actual fact my the other half is a Malaysian and I travelled very often to Pahang as I love the nature and peaceful life there.

My main intention is to share jokes and relief stress after a long week of hard work. I will take note on the sensitivity of words used in future, no hard feelings, cheers...

Cool down, bros...

Two engineering students were walking across a university campus when one said, 'Where did you get such a great bike?'
The second engineer replied, 'Well, I was walking along yesterday, minding my own business, when a beautiful woman rode
up on this bike, threw it to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, 'Take what you want.'

The first engineer nodded approvingly and said, 'Good choice; the clothes probably wouldn't have fitted you anyway.'

To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

A priest, a doctor, and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, 'What's with
those guys? We must have been waiting for fifteen minutes!'

The doctor chimed in, 'I don't know, but I've never seen such inept golf!'

The priest said, 'Here comes the green-keeper. Let's have a word with him.'

He said, 'Hello George, what's wrong with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?'

The green-keeper replied, 'Oh, yes. That's a group of blind firemen. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we
always let them play for free anytime.'

The group fell silent for a moment.

The priest said, 'That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight.'

The doctor said, 'Good idea. I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if there's anything he can do for them.'

The engineer said, 'Why can't they play at night?'

What is the difference between mechanical engineers and civil engineers? Mechanical engineers build weapons and civil engineers build targets.

The graduate with a science degree asks,' Why does it work?'

The graduate with an engineering degree asks, 'How does it work?'

The graduate with an accounting degree asks, 'How much will it cost?'

The graduate with an arts degree asks, 'Do you want fries with that?'

Three engineering students were gathered together discussing who must have designed the human body.

One said, 'It was a mechanical engineer. Just look at all the joints.'

Another said, 'No, it was an electrical engineer. The nervous system has many thousands of electrical connections.'

The last one said, 'No, actually it had to have been a civil engineer. Who else would run a toxic waste pipeline through a recreational area?'

Normal people believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.

An engineer was crossing a road one day, when a frog called out to him and said, 'If you kiss me, I'll turn into a beautiful princess.'
He bent over, picked up the frog and put it in his pocket. The frog spoke up again and said, 'If you kiss me I'll turn back into a
beautiful princess and stay with you for one week.'

The engineer took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it and returned it to the pocket.

The frog then cried out, 'If you kiss me and turn me back into a princess, I'll stay with you for one week and do ANYTHING you want.'

Again, the engineer took the frog out, smiled at it and put it back into his pocket.

Finally, the frog asked, 'What is the matter? I've told you I'm a beautiful princess and that I'll stay with you for one week and do anything
you want. Why won't you kiss me?'

The engineer said, 'Look, I'm an engineer. I don't have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog, now that's cool!

I have an arts degree. You can't discriminate arts grads, all right? I mean....here in Singapore, we do a pretty important job as.....mostly civil servants and teachers!

[luenny]

The engineer thing is funny. I can laugh at it all I want because I'm an engineer. Hahaha!! But really, why can't the blind men play at night.

[trident]

well I didn't grad, so I'll just laugh at all the engineers
actually the blind man should be playing at night

[Shadow]

but how blind people play golf?

[silvertemplar]

but how blind people play golf?

Actually, they need another person to align their body, place ball and the rest is up to their own swing...

Some of them play better then me...

Marriage is not a word. It's a sentence.... (a life sentence!)
