Mumble Report post Posted December 15, 2007 It's a very old end of the pier joke, mumble... Try searching 'how do you catch a polar bear?' How do you catch a polar bear in Alaska? First you go out and cut a hole in the ice. Then, you line the hole with peas. When the bear comes to take a pea, you kick him in the ice-hole. Do polar bears like peas? I'm guessing I'm missing some crucial point here . . . And why 'end of the pier'? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tally Report post Posted December 16, 2007 Is it funny because the tinned peas would soon become frozen anyway at the North Pole? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mumble Report post Posted December 16, 2007 Is it funny because the tinned peas would soon become frozen anyway at the North Pole? Well it depends what they're in - if they're in salty water/brine, then they're less likely to freeze Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tally Report post Posted December 16, 2007 I think the North Pole is so cold that even salt water would freeze. Ice bergs float on the sea, and they do not melt because of the salt. Even antifreeze is generally only effective to -30 and it gets colder than that at the North Pole, and I have never seen peas tinned in antifreeze anyway.

Mumble Report post Posted December 16, 2007 Well if they did, I'm assuming that because water expands when it freezes, the can would explode (that would save the need for a tin opener I suppose). I did that with a can of coke in a slightly too cold fridge once - very messy. But can polar bears actually pick up cans of peas? And why would they want to? Ans also, if the polar bear falls in the ice hole, he's going to drown and you're probably never going to be able to get him out - so you wouldn't actually catch a polar bear that way.

(NB it's usually around 5 - 6 o'clock when he's finished in the factory for the day but before he has his dinner)... Oh, he also sent me an e-mail and said don't worry if you 'miss' the jokes - they're not that funny anyway and definitely not improved for a post mortem Right that link: linkyplinkybloggythingthesecond L&P BD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

End of the pier refers to the old variety shows with stand up comics doing v bad jokes, I think... The joke is based on puns and homophones - read it as ... When the bear comes to take a pee, you kick him in the *rsehole You are right BD, it doesnt stand up to much scrutiny does it?

No - the 'in joke' allusion to the joke is far funnier than the joke, but that's sort of by the by now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baddad Report post Posted December 19, 2007 Tut! I dunno - all these people asking 'have I been naughty or nice'? I think if you have to ask...... Santa said pretty much the same thing, pointing out that if somebody is told the week before that they've made the 'naughty' list it's highly unlikely they're going to put in much effort from there on in... On the other hand, if you told someone early that they'd made the 'nice' list where's the incentive gone? And what about those (like most of us) who are on the cusp? Sword of damacles or wot???
