Just remembered a couple of jokes I heard some time ago:

1)

Representatives of different nationalities meet in a restaurant. Each one ordered a glass of wine, but when it was delivered, each found a fly in their glass.

The Swede asked for a new wine in the same glass.
The Englishman asked for a new wine in a new glass.
The Finn took the fly out and drank the wine.
The Russian drank the wine with the fly.
The Chinese took the fly out, ate it, but didn’t drink the wine.
The Jew took the fly out and sold it to the Chinese.
The Gypsy drank 2/3 of the wine and then asked to replace it.
The Norwegian took the fly and went fishing while using it as bait.
The Irishman chopped the fly to pieces inside the glass and sent it to the Englishman.
The American sued the restaurant and demanded 65 millions of dollars as moral compensation.
The Scotsman grabbed the fly by the throat and shouted: “Now you fucking spit out everything you drank!”
The Cuban shouted that this was all result of machinations by social democrats; stabbed the waiter, said that he didn’t want the wine because it’s a drink for women, and asked where was the vodka he ordered long ago.




2)

The results of a recent FAO-commissioned survey of governments around the world have been published
The question was: “Tell us honestly what your opinion is about food shortages in the rest of the world”

The Europeans didn’t understand what “shortage” meant.
The Africans didn’t understand what “food” meant.
The Americans didn’t understand what “the rest of the world” meant.
The Chinese asked for more clarification on the meaning of “opinion”.
The Italian government is still debating about the meaning of the word “honestly”.
