Old Aussie joke
Old Aussie joke
Two Aussies, Rosso and Merrick, were adrift in a lifeboat. While rummaging through the boat's provisions, Rosso stumbled across an old lamp. He rubbed the lamp vigorously and a genie came forth. This genie, however, stated that he could only deliver one wish, not the standard three. Without giving much thought to the matter, Rosso blurted out," Make the entire ocean into Victoria Bitter!" The genie clapped his hands with a deafening crash, and immediately the entire sea turned into the "hard earned thirst" quencher. The genie vanished. Only the gentle lapping of beer on the hull broke the stillness as the two men considered their circumstances. Merrick looked disgustedly at Rosso whose wish had been granted. After a long, tension-filled moment Merrick said: "Nice going Rosso! Now we're going to have to piss in the boat."
