Desert Island Joke

Imagine a beautiful desert island in the middle of nowhere where the following people are stranded.

・2 Italian men and 1 Italian woman
・2 French men and 1 French woman
・2 German men and 1 German woman
・2 Greek men and 1 Greek woman
・2 English men and 1 English woman
・2 Bulgarian men and 1 Bulgarian woman
・2 American men and 1 American woman
・2 Japanese men and 1 Japanese woman
・2 Irish men and 1 Irish woman




We can expect that the situations one month later will be quite different in each nationality group.


Let me show some examples.


Italian:
One man killed the other man for the woman.

French:
They are all living happily together as a family of three.

German:
The two men have a strict weekly schedule of when they alternate with the woman.





And the case of Japanese is so interesting.

The two Japanese men have faxed Tokyo and are waiting for instructions.
The Japanese woman is recording everything on her camcorder.





Of course they are all jokes besed on our common stereotype.


But it's so pity to be regarded us as incompetent Japanese.
