Is this funny, or is it just me............?

During some war, I forget which one, a French soldier (inexplicably) captures a British Commander. The French soldier asks the British Commander why they wear Red coats. "Dont you know that they make you stand out more and you are easier targets?" The British soldier explains that they are worn so that if they are shot, and bleed, the rest of the soldiers wont notice the blood and get all excited and whatnot. This is why, to this day, the French wear brown pants.

If that one didnt work, heres an old stand-by;

These three dogs are sitting in a vets office. The first one asks the third one “So, what are you in for?” “I’m getting neutered.” “Why?” he asked “Well, My master was getting dinner ready and he had a big steak on the table. When he wasn’t looking I jumped up on the table and ate it.”
So the the Third one asked the first one “So, what are you in for?” He said the same thing. “Why?” asked the third dog. “Well” he said", I like to bite little children."
So then they both ask the second dog “What are you in for?” “Well”, he said. “When my master was in the shower, she dropped the soap. So then I started to hump her.” “So what are you in for again?” the third dog asked. “I’m just getting my nails cut.”

I’ve heard the first one in a different format: The captain of a ship is attacked by 2 pirate ships, so he asks his mate to fetch him his red shirt. When asked why he tells him it’s so the blood doesn’t show and his crew aren’t scared. They fight off the pirate ships.
The next day they are attacked by 6 pirate ships. The captain asks his running mate to go fetch his brown trousers…

That would be the Revolutionary War, in which the French helped the Colonists fight against the British.

And yes, it is just you.
But don’t feel too bad.

Remember, there is always pie!!:smiley:
