Me Waan Chicken

A man walked into a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant in Jamaica and “passed out” on the floor. People gathered around to help him by fanning and doing everything they could to help him regain conciousness.

Someone peeled an orange and started squeezing the juice into his mouth, whereupon the man suddenly came back to life, pushed the person away and yelled, “Luk yah man! If me did want orange, me woulda fall down in de market.”

Mi Madda Get Lick Dung

A bus was involved in an accident on the busy Half-Way Tree Road on Friday afternoon.

As expected, traffic came to a stand-still, and a large vocal crowd gathered. A male reporter from one of our ‘big’ newspapers, anxious to get his story could not get near the bus or the victim(s). Being a clever sort, he started shouting loudly, ” Unnuh let me through! Let me through! A mi madda get lick-dung. “

The crowd made way for him. Lying in front of the bus was a donkey.

Pum Pum Apples

A guy is driving his Kriss deportee down a dusty Jamaican country road when he sees a sign, “Star apples J$100.00 each”.

Curious to find out why one star apple should cost that much, he stops and asks the farmer why the star apples are so expensive. The farmer says, “Bway dese are special bulla and pear star apples. Here, try one nuh?” The man takes a bite and says, “Unbelievable; I taste the pear, but not the bulla.” The farmer says, “Just turn it around an bite again man.” He does so and he savours a sweet bulla.

The farmer says, “Mi have fish an’ festival star apple, too, but dem is $200.00 each.” The man is excited, buys one, takes a bite and says, “Wow, these are great but I taste the fish but not the festival!.” The farmer says, “Just turn it around, man.” He does, takes a bite and the unmistakable taste of a sweet crunchy festival fills his mouth.

The farmer nods in approval and says, “Now, if you really like dat, mi ‘ave some extra special apples dat cost $500.00 each. They’re pum pum apples.” “Pum Pum apples?” The man cannot resist and whips out his $500.00 note. He takes a bite and spits out in disgust, shouting “YUCK, these taste like shit!” The farmer cooly responds, “Jus’ tun it ’round, man!!”

You know you are on a flight to Jamaica When …

- You get to the airport before the Air Jamaica counter staff

- Everybody is checking in suitcases the size of a refrigerator

- The person beside you taps you on your shoulder and says “Yuh only have one piece? Beg yu check een dis ya piece ah luggage fah mi nuh. DO!”

- The passenger next to you slowly leans away from you while raising one leg and mutters “Yes bwoy, DAT is gas!”

- Somebody hands a flight attendant a paper bag and asks her to “heat up dis ya patty fi mi nuh baby”

- The plane starts to descend, and a woman in the seat behind you says to her friend … “Come Darris, time fi go tile-it an’ tidy!”

- The overhead compartment smells like fish, jerk chicken and rum … then something from up there starts to drip on you.

- Most of the passengers clap when the plane lands

- While the plane is still moving and taxi-ing to the terminal, people are unbuckling their seat belts, grabbing their hand luggage and heading towards the plane door

- Everybody who have a big screen TV, a boom-box and a microwave go straight to the “Nothing to Declare” line in Customs.

'Have sex with my wife'

The Old Harbour police responded to an unusual call on Tuesday, when they were summoned by a man who had trouble convincing neighbours that a man they saw entering his house was not an intruder but was paid to make love to his wife.

Reports are that the 45-year-old man could no longer satisfy his wife as a lover and enlisted a younger man to have sex with her. However, neighbours saw the man entering and leaving the premises regularly and confronted both men for an explanation.

At approximately 8:00 a.m., the distressed husband called lawmen to pacify a crowd that had gathered outside his house.

"After we went to the dwelling, we saw the husband who had called us and the wife and another man in his early thirties," a sub-officer at the Old Harbour Police Station told The STAR.

"It was pointed out to us by the husband that he had enlisted the services of the younger male for his wife, as he is unable to deliver."

When The STAR visited the area, several residents expressed concern about the strange actions of the husband. They claimed that they were demanding an explanation as to why someone would want to have such an arrangement.

Both the husband and his 'co-worker' were approached by the newsteam but each declined to comment.

The lawmen acted professionally by explaining to the irate residents that it is a contractual agreement among consenting adults and that there was no breach of the law.

Meanwhile, the residents said that they have never heard of a man getting another male to service his wife but rather, they have known of cases where men prevented this from happening.

"Bwoy this ya service bull ya really lucky, as the three a dem a live happily like something out of a story book," remarked a resident.

The STAR made checks with several clergymen who said that the husband's actions are immoral and that he is in need of a spiritual baptism.

Harry is getting along in years and finds that he is unable to perform
sexually. He finally goes to his doctor who tries a few things, but
nothing seems to work. So the doctor refers him to a Jamaican obeah man.
man who he goes to visit when he goes on holiday to Negril.

The obeah man says, 'I can cure this.' With that said, he throws a
white powder in a flame, and there is a flash with billowing blue smoke.
Then he says, 'This is powerful medicine but you can only use it once a
year.
All you have to do is say '123,' and it shall rise for as long as
you wish!'The man then asks, 'What happens when it's over, and I don't want
to continue?'
The Obeah man replies: 'All you or your partner has to say is 1234,
and it will go down. But be warned: It will not work again for another year.'
Harry rushes home, anxious to try out his new powers and prowess.
That night he is ready to surprise his wife.
He showers, shaves, and puts on his most exotic shaving lotion and
cologne.

After he gets into bed and is lying next to her, he says, '123' and suddenly he becomes more aroused than
anytime in his life, just as the Obeah man had promised.
His wife, who had been facing away from him, turns over
and asks, 'What did you say 123 for?'
And now you know why you shouldn't end a sentence with a preposition!

And old Indian man

An old Indian chief sat in his hut on the reservation, smoking a ceremonial pipe, and eyeing two US government officials sent to interview him.
One US official asked Chief Two Eagles. "You have observed the white man for 90 years.
You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."
The Chief nodded in agreement.
The official continued, "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"
The Chief stared at the government officials for over a minute and then calmly replied:
"When white man found the land, Indians were running it.
NoTaxes,
No Debt,
Plenty Buffalo,
Plenty Beaver,
Women Did All The Work,
Medicine Man Free,
Indian Man Spent All Day Hunting And Fishing,
All Night Having Sex."
Then the Chief leaned back and smiled . . .
. "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."

How To Love Your Jamaican Man



1. Never ask where yu man has been, where him coming from or where him going Don't always feel him going to another woman. If yu treated him right he will soon come back. If him don't come back, well you have to work pon dat!

2. Always make sure de food deh pon de table when him come thru de door. Member, "regular fried dumpling keeps your man a humping".

3. Don't forget the "Irish Moss" and "Guinness". A nuff ah dem like pork, but just don't call it pork ... yu mad! Call it a fancy foreign name like ham or franks! Ah it dem mother did grow dem up pon.

4. Never get upset if he accidentally sleeps with yuh friend, sister, or even mother. That only means he is a good man, dem would have never slept with him if him was worthless! Is dem fault fi a pressure him!

5. Never tell yuh man seh yu pregnant - well, not til yuh hide him passport!

6. Never ask how many baby mother yuh man have. Dis may lead to embarrassment because him may have lost count.

7. If him grab yuh up! Tell him that's not how to show love, some think that is the way but don't call de police. It don't mek no sense, because you always end up bailing him out of jail.

8. Never tell yuh man is not your real hair! Dem love long hair gal. Keep telling him dat you're half-Chinese or yu have Indjun in yuh family.

9. Don't listen to your girlfriends advice, especially if dem don't have no man. How can someone with no man tell you how to keep one. Dem always telling you that 'him controlling yu'. She just want someone to keep her company because she have no man. Some of dem even have funny intentions.

10. Never ask to drive your man's car, or give him directions, or tell him to ask for directions when he is lost. Him soon find him way! Grin and bear it.

11. Never ask for your man's home number and address ... some ladies get this strange idea after seeing their man fe three years and having several children for him that this somehow entitles dem to dis privileged information. Be realistic! The relationship is still in its early stages. However, your man might feel generous and offer up his cell phone or pager digits. Be grateful!!!

The duck

Three Jamaican women die together in an accident
and go to heaven.

When they get there, St. Peter says, "We only have one rule here in heaven: don't step on the ducks!"

So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place. It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, the first woman accidentally steps on one.

Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest man she ever saw.

St. Peter chains them together and says, "Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly man!"

The next day, the second woman steps accidentally on a duck and along comes St. Peter, who doesn't miss a thing. With him is another extremely ugly man. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first woman.

The third woman has observed all this and, not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly man, is very, VERY careful where she steps.

She manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St. Peter comes up to her with the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on . very tall, long eyelashes, muscular, and thin.

St. Peter chains them together without saying a word.

The happy woman says, "I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity?"

The guy says, "I don't know about you, but I stepped on a duck!"
Little Math Test

A Jamaican man wants a job, but the foreman won't hire him until he
passes a little math test.
Here is your first question, the foreman said. "Without using
numbers,represent the number 9."
"Without numbers?" The Jamaican says, "Dat is easy." And proceeds
to draw three trees.
What's this?" the boss asks
"Ave you got no brain? Tree and tree and tree make nine," says the
Jamaican.
"Fair enough," says the boss. "Here's your second question. Use
the same rules, but this time the number is 99."
The Jamaican stares into space for a while, then picks up the
picture that he has just drawn and makes a smudge on each tree. "Ere you go."
The boss scratches his head and says, "How on earth do you get that
represent 99?"
"Each of da trees is dirty now. So, it's dirty tree, and dirty
tree, and dirty tree. Dat is 99."
The boss is getting worried that he's going to actually have to
hire this Jamaican, so he says, "All right, last question. Same rules again,
but represent the number 100."
The Jamaican stares into space some more, then he picks up the
picture again and makes a little mark at the base of each tree and says, "Ere you
go. One hundred."
The boss looks at the attempt. "You must be nuts if you think that
represents a hundred!"
The Jamaican leans forward and points to the marks at the base of
each tree and says, "A little dog come along and crap by each tree. So now
you got dirty tree and a turd, dirty tree and a turd, and dirty tree and a
turd, which makes one hundred."
"So, when I start?"
Interact

A Jamaican, a Bajan, and a Trini all went to a strip club.
A sweet looking lady came up to them and began to dance up.
First she went up to the Jamaican boy. He took a $10 and stuffed in
in her bra.
She took the $10 out, then took off her bra and went up to the Bajan
man. So the Bajan man took $10 and stuffed it in her panties.
She took the $10 out, and then took off her panties and went up to
the Trini man. While dancing on him, she suddenly felt something
SWIPE in between her ass. She turnes her face to the Trini
man and he says "I eh have money, yuh take Interact?"

Sperm Count

An 85-year-old man went to his doctor's office to get a sperm count.
The doctor gave the man a jar and said,
"Take this jar home and bring back a semen sample tomorrow."


The next day the 85-year-old man reappeared at the doctor's office and
gave
him the jar, which was as clean and empty as on the previous day.
The doctor asked what happened and the man explained:
"Well, doc, it's like this - First I tried with my right hand, but nothing.
Then I tried with my left hand, but still nothing.

Then I asked my wife for help. She tried with her right hand,
then her left, still nothing. She tried with her mouth,
first with the teeth in, then with her teeth out, and still nothing.
We even called up Arleen, the lady next door and she tried too,
first with both hands, then an armpit and she even tried
squeezin' it between her knees, but still
nothing."

The doctor was shocked! "You asked your neighbor?"

The old man replied, "Yep. And no matter what we tried,
we still couldn't get the jar open."

Duties of a Wife

Three men were sitting together bragging about how they had given their new wives duties.

The 1st man had married an Asian woman

and bragged that he had told his wife she was going to do all the dishes and house cleaning. He said it took a couple of days but on the 3rd day he came home to a clean house and the dishes were done.


The 2nd man had married a White woman.
Bettye White
He bragged that he had given his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes and the cooking. On the 1st day he didn't see any results, but the next day it was better. By the 3rd day, his house was clean, the dishes were done and he had a huge dinner on the table.


The 3rd man married a Black woman.

He boasted that he had told her that her duties were to keep the house clean, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed, and hot meals on the table for every meal. He said the 1st day he didn't see anything, the 2nd day he didn't see anything but by the 3rd day most of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye; enough to fix himself a bite to eat, load the dishwasher and call a landscaper.

The prostitute

An Irish daughter had not been home for over 5 years.
Upon her return, her father cussed her. "Where have ye been a this time? Why did ye not write to us, not even a line? Why didn't ye call? Can ye not understand what ye put yer old mum thru?
The girl, crying, replied, "Sniff, sniff....dad....I became a prostitute...."
"YE WHAT!!? OUT OF HERE, YE SHAMELESS HARLOT! SINNER! YOU'RE A DISCRACE TO THIS FAMILY!"
"OK, dad-- as ye wish. I just came back to give mum this luxurious fur coat, title deed to a ten bedroom mansion plus a $5 million savings certificate.

Boy: "I have a baseball."
Man: "That's nice."
Boy: "Want to buy it?"
Man: "No, thanks."
Boy: "My dad's outside."
Man: "OK, how much?"
Boy: "$250."

A few weeks later it happens again that the boy and the mom's lover are in the closet together.

Boy: "Dark in here."
Man: "Yes, it is."
Boy: "I have a baseball glove."
Man: "How much?"
Boy: "$750."
Man: "Fine."

A few days later, the father says to the boy, "Grab your glove. Let's go
outside and toss the baseball!" The boy says, "I can't. I sold them." The father asks, "How much did you sell them for?" The son says, "$1,000." The father says "That's terrible to overcharge your friends like that. That's way more than those two things cost. I'm going to take you to church and make you confess." They go to church and the father alerts the priest and makes the little boy sits in the confession booth and closes the door.

The boy says, "Dark in here."
The priest says, "Don't start that shit again."
