Bill and his mate drove into a timber yard in his truck.

Bill's mate walked into the office and said, "We need some four by two's".

The clerk said, "You mean two by fours don't you?".

Bill's mate said, "Hang on, ... I'll go check with Bill".

He returned shortly and said, "Yair, .. I meant two by four's".

"All right", said the clerk, "How long do you need them?".

Bill's mate looked a bit confused, thought about it for a few seconds and said, "I'd better go check with Bill".

After a while, he returned to the office and said, "My mate Bill said we're gonna need 'em for a long time. We're gonna build a house".

Rick.

:devious: :devious:

"HE returned to the office and said, "My mate Bill"

Come on now Rick, Bill isn't gay is he :sick:

Nut-Nahhh!

Careful Jared, you've earned the "Wagging Finger of Shame" award.

Everyone knows that in Oz, "Mate" is another way of saying friend.

Besides everyone knows of Bill's love for "breats".

'Nuff said.

In Australia "Mate"="Buddy" (not partner, spouse, significant other, etc...).

Why do cowboys say "Howdy Partner"? They arent gay too are they?

Tisk, Tisk, Tisk,

Jared, :finger:

Rick.

Mate means mate where I come from so what do you expect me to think? It just doesn't sound good here in the US of A. So :finger: back at ya :devious:

"Why do cowboys say "Howdy Partner"? They arent gay too are they?"

Ya never know now days man. This world can be a scary place :nervous:

BTW this IS under "Funnybone" for god sakes people. Don't take everything so seriously. NO ONE thinks you are Gay Bill

Not that I'm keeping track but I'd say the score is Rick 4, Bill 2.

Jared:

What you fail to understand is that SOME things aren't funny at all, regardless of how they're dealt with. Making fun of those subjects is just .... bluntly .... irresponsible and uncultured.

Defending it under the thin veil of acceptability of "Humour" is not only naive, but bluntly......stupid.

Just my 2¢

Trust me EScanlon, I've seen far worse bullshit posted under this so called "Funnybone" section so don't get your panties in a bunch over such a simple comment like "Come on now Rick, Bill isn't gay is he" The "Boobs" thread which I'm proud to say I haven't read it ALL but the little I did read I can tell you it is far far worse than my little remark with all the yung kids surfing the site these days. Don't get me wrong, I love boobs as much as the next guy but Does it belong at a Z Car Site? Not really IMO. THATS "irresponsible"

naive and stupid?, You better look in the mirror while saying that if you take such a thing to heart. For cryin out loud GET OVER IT. I've never seen someone make such a big issue out of NOTHING as you.

Honest to god this is the last time I participate in "Funnybone" because people like you are so STUPID you can't tell the difference between truth and sarcasm :stupid:
