"Bosnian war humor" joke
National Public Radio sent Scott Simon to Bosnia to cover the war. He did one piece on humor in Bosnia, much of which is black humor. Here are the one's I remember.
Cigarettes are in very short supply. A man had put the unsmoked half of his cigarette over his ear.
He was running between buildings with a friend when a sniper opened up on them. He was hit a glancing blow which sheared off his ear. He stopped frantically in the middle of the street looking at the ground.
His friend yelled, "Get under cover, you fool. You've got two ears."
He replied, It's not the ear that is in question, it is the cigarette."
A man was in one of the long queues for water when he broke wind.
The woman standing behind him put a stern hand on his shoulder, turned him around and demanded, "Where did you get beans?"
The line going about now is that if Jesus were to appear in Sarajevo, carrying his cross, people would come out from hiding to approach him, asking, "Where did you get all that wood?"
