Can I have some Irish Sausages, please?” asked the Irishman, walking up to the counter.
The assistant looked at him and asked: “Are you Irish?”
“If I had asked you for Italian sausage, would you ask me if I was Italian?” demanded the Irishman indignantly.
“Or, if I asked for German Bratwurst, would you ask me if I was German?”
Then, warming to his theme, he went on:”Or if I asked you for a kosher hot dog, would you ask me if I was Jewish?
Or, if I asked you for a taco, would you ask me if I was Mexican?
Would ya? Would Ya?”
The assistant said: “Well no”.
Suitably encouraged by the success of his logic, the Irishman steps it up a gear.
“And if I asked you for frogs legs, would you ask me if I was French?
“What about Danish Bacon, would you ask me if I was Danish?”
“Well, I probably wouldn’t,” conceded the assistant.
So, now bursting with righteous indignation, the Irishman says, “Well, all right then, why did you ask me if I’m Irish just because I askedfor Irish sausages?”
The assistant replied: “Because, Sir…. you’re in Home Depot!”
