Yes, it is very funny when Germans feel taken advantage of and treated unfairly. Irish and Portuguese probably don't care, but Greeks should remember how much fun WWI and WWII were.
While the German is working to pay the bar tab, the American is guarding his house and property, until he notices the great time they're having at the bar. At which point he drops his gun, borrows a tenner from a Chinese man, and gets liquored up.
A German and French walk into a casino, and proceed to gamble away their life savings. It's ok though because this particular casino has a money back guarantee paid for by the Irish taxpayer. I think a round of beer is the least the German should do...
I think this is sort of unfair. The Irish and the Portuguese have accepted IMF austerity measures, and the Irish government has pledged to pay its debts.
In Ireland, at least, there have been no riots. No bank employees have been burned to death. The pain has been accepted.
Still, I take your point, I suppose.
It's a pity Germany doesn't have a Margaret Thatcher on hand to demand a German rebate.
If the end of the joke follows anything like what happened in WW II, the p. o.'d German breaks into the Greek's house and takes it over, the Portuguese guy offers his "moral support" to the German's break-in but plans to rat out the German if he gets arrested. And the Irishman? He just declares "neutrality," keeps drinking, and tries to find somebody else who'll pay his bar tab.
A Jew, an American and a Frenchman walk into a bar and have a drink. The Jew leaves. The Frenchman says to the American, "I can't look at him anymore, he's a liar."
The American says, "You've had enough of him, but I have to deal with him every day."
The Greek smashes the place up, and shouts that if the drinks don't keep coming, he's going to leave the bar.
Yet for some reason the German reaches for his wallet...
