    Welsh jobs boom, there's lovely then.

    COMPANIES RESORT TO EMPLOYING THE WELSH
    http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/index....1909&Itemid=59

    THE recession took a turn for the worse last night as new figures revealed more businesses have resorted to using low cost Welshmen.

    Unemployment in Wales has fallen by 1,000 so far this year, as towns close to the border are overrun by short, hairy employees who work for vodka and seem to speak Elvish.

    Wayne Hayes, a warehouse worker from Chester, said: "I saw this odd creature stacking boxes. The boss said it's from somewhere called 'Llanerch-y-Mor', which I can only assume is a suburb of Mordor."

    Wales still suffers from large scale unemployment with many unable to work due to a chronic sense of victimhood and vitamin D deficiency from lack of sunlight. Singer Charlotte Church's bar tab currently accounts for 42% of the country's GDP.

    Meanwhile trade unions have called for increased safety checks warning an improperly-handled Welsh can explode in a shower of glowering resentment and vowel-free syllables.

    Roy Hobbs, who employs 12 Welshmen at his factory in Shrewsbury, said: "They're charming little fellows that can easily be trained to do menial tasks. I sometimes think they almost understand what we're saying."

    He added: "They're initially skittish around machinery but give them a pallet of straw to sleep on and a flagon of Brains Bitter every night and they're happy as larks."

    But many are angry at the introduction of the Welsh. Nikki Hollis, an accounts assistant from Ludlow, said: "How would you like a Tom Jones screaming down your ear and rubbing his crotch against your cheek while you're trying to do the regional sales figures?"

          All the best jokes are.

          Have you seen Avenue Q?

          Princeton:
          Say, Kate, can I ask you a question?

          Kate Monster:
          Sure!

          Princeton:
          Well, you know Trekkie Monster upstairs?

          Kate Monster:
          Uh huh.

          Princeton:
          Well, he's Trekkie Monster, and you're Kate Monster.

          Kate Monster:
          Right.

          Princeton:
          You're both Monsters.

          Kate Monster:
          Yeah.

          Princeton:
          Are you two related?

          Kate Monster:
          What?! Princeton, I'm surprised at you! I find that racist!

          Princeton:
          Oh, well, I'm sorry! I was just asking!

          Kate Monster:
          Well, it's a touchy subject.
          No, not all Monsters are related.
          What are you trying say, huh?
          That we all look the same to you?
          Huh, huh, huh?

          Princeton:
          No, no, no, not at all. I'm sorry,
          I guess that was a little racist.

          Kate Monster:
          I should say so. You should be much more
          careful when you're talking about the
          sensitive subject of race.

          Princeton:
          Well, look who's talking!

          Kate Monster:
          What do you mean?

          Princeton:
          What about that special Monster School you told me about?

          Kate Monster:
          What about it?

          Princeton:
          Could someone like me go there?

          Kate Monster:
          No, we don't want people like you-

          Princeton:
          You see?!

          You're a little bit racist.

          Kate Monster:
          Well, you're a little bit too.

          Princeton:
          I guess we're both a little bit racist.

          Kate Monster:
          Admitting it is not an easy thing to do...

          Princeton:
          But I guess it's true.

          Kate Monster:
          Between me and you,
          I think

          Both:
          Everyone's a little bit racist
          Sometimes.
          Doesn't mean we go
          Around committing hate crimes.
          Look around and you will find
          No one's really color blind.
          Maybe it's a fact
          We all should face
          Everyone makes judgments
          Based on race.

          Princeton:
          Now not big judgments, like who to hire
          or who to buy a newspaper from -

          Kate Monster:
          No!

          Princeton:
          No, just little judgments like thinking that Mexican
          busboys should learn to speak goddamn English!

          Kate Monster:
          Right!

          Both:
          Everyone's a little bit racist
          Today.
          So, everyone's a little bit racist
          Okay!
          Ethinic jokes might be uncouth,
          But you laugh because
          They're based on truth.
          Don't take them as
          Personal attacks.
          Everyone enjoys them -
          So relax!

          Princeton:
          All right, stop me if you've heard this one.

          Kate Monster:
          Okay!

          Princeton:
          There's a plan going down and there's only
          one paracute. And there's a rabbi, a priest...

          Kate Monster:
          And a black guy!

          Gary Coleman:
          Whatchoo talkin' 'bout Kate?

          Kate Monster:
          Uh...

          Gary Coleman:
          You were telling a black joke!

          Princeton:
          Well, sure, Gary, but lots of people tell black jokes.

          Gary Coleman:
          I don't.

          Princeton:
          Well, of course you don't - you're black!
          But I bet you tell Polack jokes, right?

          Gary Coleman:
          Well, sure I do. Those stupid Polacks!

          Princeton:
          Now, don't you think that's a little racist?

          Gary Coleman:
          Well, damn, I guess you're right.

          Kate Monster:
          You're a little bit racist.

          Gary Coleman:
          Well, you're a little bit too.

          Princeton:
          We're all a little bit racist.

          Gary Coleman:
          I think that I would
          Have to agree with you.

          Princeton/Kate Monster:
          We're glad you do.

          Gary Coleman:
          It's sad but true!
          Everyone's a little bit racist -

          All right!

          Kate Monster:
          All right!

          Princeton:
          All right!

          Gary Coleman:
          All right!
          Bigotry has never been
          Exclusively white

          All:
          If we all could just admit
          That we are racist a little bit,
          Even though we all know
          That it's wrong,
          Maybe it would help us
          Get along.

          Princeton:
          Oh, Christ do I feel good.

          Gary Coleman:
          Now there was a fine upstanding black man!

          Princeton:
          Who?

          Gary Coleman:
          Jesus Christ.

          Kate Monster:
          But, Gary, Jesus was white.

          Gary Coleman:
          No, Jesus was black.

          Kate Monster:
          No, Jesus was white.

          Gary Coleman:
          No, I'm pretty sure that Jesus was black-

          Princeton:
          Guys, guys...Jesus was Jewish!

          Brian:
          Hey guys, what are you laughing about?

          Gary Coleman:
          Racism!

          Brian:
          Cool.

          Christmas Eve:
          BRIAN! Come back here!
          You take out lecycuraburs!

          Princeton:
          What's that mean?

          Brian:
          Um, recyclables.
          Hey, don't laugh at her!
          How many languages do you speak?

          Kate Monster:
          Oh, come off it, Brian!
          Everyone's a little bit racist.

          Brian:
          I'm not!

          Princeton:
          Oh no?

          Brian:
          Nope!

          How many Oriental wives
          Have you got?

          Christmas Eve:
          What? Brian!

          Princeton:
          Brian, buddy, where you been?
          The term is Asian-American!

          Christmas Eve:
          I know you are no
          Intending to be
          But calling me Oriental -
          Offensive to me!

          Brian:
          I'm sorry, honey, I love you.

          Christmas Eve:
          And I love you.

          Brian:
          But you're racist, too.

          Christmas Eve:
          Yes, I know.
          The Jews have all
          The money
          And the whites have all
          The power.
          And I'm always in taxi-cab
          With driver who no shower!

          Princeton:
          Me too!

          Kate Monster:
          Me too!

          Gary Coleman:
          I can't even get a taxi!

          All:
          Everyone's a little bit racist
          It's true.
          But everyone is just about
          As racist as you!
          If we all could just admit
          That we are racist a little bit,
          And everyone stopped being
          So PC
          Maybe we could live in -
          Harmony!

          Christmas Eve:
          Evlyone's a ritter bit lacist!
          ‎"See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."

            Funnily enough just spent the weekend working at a factory/warehouse complex 50yds inside Wales at Deeside, impossible to tell who were Welshies and who were normal people due to a bizarre mix of accents. It's part scouse part Northwalian.

            Turned down the chance to work this weekend in Tredegar though, they'll be proper goggled eyed inbreds there.

              Indeed it is.

              Racism against the Welsh seems to be only flavour of racism that still passes without comment.

              Replace 'Welsh' with 'Irish' in that story and you'd have a ferking good beating heading your way courtesy of some heavy-set boys from the Old Country.

              (Yes I know they are not strictly a 'race' but the point remains)

              You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.
