Stop me if you've heard this one

Thought I'd share a funny story with you, because I am a funny guy

My home is filled with Japanese people, with my wife K, my child, my wife's cousin W and friend all live with us. That makes 4 F'd Nihonjins and me, a Gaijin in my own home. My buddy recently moved into the basement too so that kind of evens the odds - but I'm getting off topic

Last year I took my wife to see the Dalai Lama at the Skydome - a great experience I'd highly recommend it if you ever get the chance. Anyways, in the concessions were a bunch of Tibetans selling various and sundried items including these cool hand woven winter hats with tassles. I got one for K and one for myself.

At home that night, K's cousin W commented on my cool new hat and asked me where I got it. I replied "the Dalai Lama gave it to me" And we laughed, ho ho.

Next day, I was suprised to see that W had a hat just like mine! "W," I said "Where did you get that hat??" He replied "I got it from the Dalai Lama" After a moment of lost in translation confusion we finally ascertained that W had gone down the road and bought himself an identical hat as mine at where else - the local Dollarama.

True story kids.

I think you're confusing him with the Dalai Hummer.

For those who missed the punchline: pronunciation trouble. The Japanese guy got confused between the Dalai Lama and the Dollarama store. Just feel fortunate that the Dolly Llama didn't enter in to the story.



(had to throw that in for Greji, who hasn't gotten an erection all week)

Thanks for the explanation!
Actually, I thought he was talking about the Dolly Llama, so I became quite confused.
Think Coligny had the same problem...

That's alright. We'll just tie a splint around that baby 'till the agara kicks in.....
