Greek vs Irish - The Firearms Forum

Hurray for the Irish!

A Greek and an Irishman were sitting in a
Starbuck's cafe one day discussing who had the
superior culture. Over triple lattes the
Greek guy says, 'Well, we Greeks built the
Parthenon,' arching his eyebrows.

The Irishman then replies, 'Well.. It was the
Irish that discovered the Summer and Winter
Solstices.'

The Greek retorts, 'We Greeks gave birth to
advanced mathematics.' The Irishman, nodding
in agreement, says, 'The Irish were the ones who
built the first timepieces and calendars.'

And so on until the Greek comes up with what he
thinks will end the discussion. With a flourish
of finality he says, 'The Greeks were the ones
who invented sex!'

The Irishman replies, 'Indeed, that is true,
but it was we Irish who introduced it to
women.'
