Default A Joke

An accomplished, well built and perfectly proportioned swimmer is training in the open ocean on a beautiful, sunny day. Swimming freestyle with excellent form, he counts his strokes between breaths with perfect timing, "One, Two, Three, Four."

God, looking down upon the man, can't help but marvel at his stunning creation. After admiring for a few minutes, God begins to wonder, "What would happen if I were to turn off the left side of the swimmers brain?"

God turns off the left side of his brain, and the man continues swimming with perfect form, but begins counting in odd numbers, "One, Three, Five, Seven..."

God is amazed, and turns the left side of the man's brain back on. After a few more moments, God begins to wonder, "What would happen if I turned off the right side of his brain?"

God turns off the right side of his brain, but the man continues swimming uninterrupted, but counting only in even numbers, "Two, Four, Six, Eight, Ten..."

God is stunned and even further amazed. He gives the man both sides of his brain back and he countinues swimming, none the wiser.

Minutes pass, and God begins getting curious. "I would what would happen" he says, "If I turned off his entire brain?" God is apprehensive, but his curiosity gets the best of him.

God turns off the mans entire brain, and waits anxiously to see the results. To God's amazement, the man, now entirely brainless, continues swimming with pefect form, counting, "Uno, Dos, Tres, Cuatro, Cinco..."

Oh Jesus Christ, it's a joke, told to me by a Mexican who just so happens to be a family member.

I forgot people take themselves so seriously and have such thin skin.

I guess we've got a bunch of angels here...
....my mistake.

I prefer that joke with the guy rowing a boat. First, there arent any world class mexican swimmers. So it would have been better using an Australian accent. And since nobody could do the joke in Farsi, russian, korean, or red-neck-ian, spanish is the one that had to work.

But for those of you that got bugged, maybe the joke was actually about those pacifist spaniards and their goofy spanish accent. Or about those damn Venezuelans that aren't smart enuf to get rid of that wack-job Hugo Chaves. But then who are we to judge??

Or maybe it was about those pompous Argentines. Or, if the joke was read right, it may have been done in a Chilean accent.

No es para tanto hueys.

Boluda has a very good point. The OP didn't say anything about a race or nationality. It's left to the reader to do so. The joke works just as well told in Spanish, with the punch line in English. That's why it's funny.

GCBY = Good Call By You

As for the Joke, my brother-in-law told me that joke in English, and then told his Mexican friends the joke in Spanish, but when the brain got turned off, the guy started counting in English.

It's a joke, not meant to be taken seriously.
