In Heaven...
All the comedians are English,
All the mechanics are German,
All the cooks are French,
All the service is Swiss,
And all the lovers are Italian.

All the cooks are English,

All the service is French,
All the lovers are Swiss,
And all the mechanics are Italian.
I have reason to disagree a bit with a couple of those, but I still like it.

I like the one about German comedians. Some variations follow.

From a Venezuelan working in Europe commenting on an anti-Chavez blog, The Devil’s Excrement.
“I recall a time when some Latin Americans friends were joking and talking about the perfect Latin American. (like the perfect European). They said something like:
“as humble as an Argentine, as feminist as a Mexican, as honest as a Colombian (well, well), as masculine as a Brazilian, as beautiful as an Ecuadorean, as well-spoken as a Chilean, as tall as a Bolivian and as well-educated as a Venezuelan.
Of course, no one ever makes jokes about Texans! That’s what the second amendment is for. :)
The version I've heard of this joke used policemen, too, with the English/German contrast. I think it works better than comedians. Are Brits particularly funny?
