Default "little rascals" spelling bee

The "little rascals" were in class one day and the teacher announced
that she would say a word and she wanted a student to spell the word and
use it in a sentence.

The first word was "dumb". Darla raised her hand and said, "Dumb,
D-U-M-B. Buckwheat is dumb."

Teacher said, "Very good, Darla. The next word is "stupid"."

Darla, again raised her hand and said, "Stupid, S-T-U-P-I-D. Buckwheat
is stupid."

Again, the teacher said, "Very good, Darla. The next word is "dictate"."

This time Buckwheat raised his hand and said, "Dictate. D-I-C-T-A-T-E. I
may be dumb and I may be stupid, but Darla says my dictates good!!"

Default I know this isn't going to come across the way I want...

but I think it would be generally a good idea for Paddy to try to "clean up" his jokes just a little bit.
There's probably very few people that find his humor more laughable than I do, but there is a time and place for everything, and some of the more off color jokes are a little bit too much for some of the younger readers on this board.
Maybe Paddy could start emailing the off color ones to the people that would like to receive them, and save the clean ones for the DR1 board..
So go ahead you guys, start throwing the rotten eggs at me for this one if you want.

That's a good guess since probably more than 75% of the DR1 members are from the US or Canada.

But to answer JDJones, I don't believe DR1 is trying to appeal to minors, and even if some minors are on the site, the jokes I've read here are nothing any 14 year hasn't already heard.

While some of Paddy's jokes may be considered tasteless, to ask him to censor himself would be unfair, after all it is the Clown Bin. Anyone that doesn't like a particular joke is always fee to comment (or not read anything in this forum).

Also, I'm sure the moderator of this forum, whom is very genteel and has exhibited tremendous sensibilities in the past, will edit any truly tasteless jokes.

Default Well, for what it's worth, I have been living in the Caribbean since 1970..

So, even though I spent 17 years in the states, that gives me 36 years down here.
I thought I'd mention it, as I have seen posts on here from younger posters. Now that I think of it, they probably know better jokes than Paddy does..
Forget I even mentioned it. It was a slow day at the office...
