Jewish people do. Are you calling Jews "uncivilized"? You probably missed, as you usually miss important points, that the joke was told to me by a Jewish friend that was an honorary member of my family. But, you probably never had a Jewish friend. That would stand to reason, because I doubt that you ever had a friend of any ethnic background, including your own. You are showing your propensity for bigotry.

<<<Civilized people do not tell "Jewish jokes." >>> Ah, c'mon, nihil. Sure they do. All ethnicities tell jokes about themselves. Some ethnic jokes are very funny, however un-PC they may be. The devil is in the details. Time. Audience. Spirit. Context.... I wouldn't tell a Jewish joke I wouldn't tell over a Shabbat dinner. I wouldn't think such a one was funny.
