A class is learning about Napoleonic Wars in Europe and a teacher asks one of her below average students to answer a question about Mr. Bonaparte.
"What type of Frenchman was Napoleon Bonaparte? You can tell me can't you."
"Course-I-Can!" he says.


:crazyeye:
 
Pretty corny.

Napoleon was Corsican (meaning he was from the French island of Corsica).
 
Here's one I made up on my own. Probably not too good, but here goes...

A previously unknown volcanic island in the Caribbean Sea was discovered in the early 1800s by a French merchant ship. In honor of the recent coronation of their emperor, Napoleon I, they decided to name it Mount Napoleon.

For many years, there was peace and quiet on the island. But one day, there was a strange rumbling. This persisted for many days until finally the enormous mountain at the center of the island went up in a fantastic explosion, taking most of the rest of the island with it. Fortunately, because evryone had already evacuated, there were no fatalities.

Afterwards, the only things left of the once-beautiful island were several tiny barren islets. To this day, these fragmented remains are called "Napoleon Blown-Apart."
 
I just watched the Simpsons and when Sideshow Bob tried to kill Krusty after a memory lane speech he was like "Yes! Yes! Krusty will be dead and Bart will be my Napoleon Blown-Apart!"

Yeah the joke was pretty corny... Greek Humor is not appreciated is it even though we basically founded civilization ;)
 
:rotfl: I think that that is probably the funniest joke so far Pirate

Nope, Washington DC. I don't remember where I heard that joke, so I'm sure you could have heard it anywhere.
 
Since we're into historical jokes, here's one a teacher once told me.

Three old German men were travelling in a train one day, around the 1960s. The first man, the youngest of the three, started talking: "I was in Poland, France and Russia in the second world war. I got ten medals and met the Führer once and they had a special about me in the Stürmer."
The second man, a bit older than the first one, replied: "I was in the trenches in the first world war, and I became a war hero on my second day. I've got 19 medals, including the knight's cross. I met the Kaiser five times and they wrote a book about me."
The third man, extremely old, said to the other two:
"I was in France 70/71. I got no medals and no merits. But we won."
