As Mark Twain observed, a German joke is no laughing matter。
Sadly for the nation that brought us everything from Beethoven to lederhosen, it seems that everyone agrees。
Germany has been voted the least funny country in the world in an international poll。
Examples of German jokes include: "Yesterday, I met my friend Horst at the hospital. He'd swallowed a sponge. He says it doesn't hurt but he's always thirsty"。
The survey of 30,000 people was conducted in 15 countries. The top ten least witty countries were:
1 Germany
2 Russia
3 Turkey
4 Britain
5 America
6 France
7 Poland
8 Belgium
9 Holland
10 Canada
正如马克•吐温所发现的,一个德国笑话根本就不是什么笑话。
从贝多芬到皮短裤,尽管德国给我们带来了诸多美好,但大家还是一致认可上述事实。
在最近一个国际调查中,德国被选为世界上最没有幽默细胞的国家。
德国笑话种种,举其中一例:“昨天,我在医院碰到了朋友Horst。他吞了块海绵。他说一点都不疼,但就是很渴。”
15个国家约3万人参与了该调查。以下是最不幽默国家的前十名:
1 德国
2 俄罗斯
3 土耳其
4 英国
5 美国
6 法国
7 波兰
8 比利时
9 荷兰
10 加拿大
