    A Sardarji and his wife are traveling by car from Key West to Boston. After almost twenty-four hours on the road, they're too tired to continue, and they decide to stop for a rest. They stop at a nice hotel and take a room, but they only plan to sleep for four hours and then get back on the road. When they check out four hours later, the desk clerk hands them a bill for $350. The Sardarji explodes and demands to know why the charge is so high. He tells the clerk although it's a nice hotel; the rooms certainly aren't worth $350. When the clerk tells him $350 is the standard rate, the Sardar insists on speaking to the Manager. The Manager appears, listens to the Sardarji, and then explains that the hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference center that were available for the husband and wife to use. But we didn't use them", the Sardarji complains. Well, they are here, and you could have," explains the Manager. No matter what facility the Manager mentions, the sardarji replies "But we didn't use it." The Manager is unmoved, and eventually the Sardarji finally gives up and agrees to pay. He writes a check and gives it to the Manager. The Manager is surprised when the looks at the check. "But sir," he says, "this check is only made out for $1.00" "That's right," says the sardarji, "I charged you $349 for sleeping with my wife." "But I didn't!" exclaims the Manager. "Well," the Sardarji replies, "she was here, and you could have.

      A better version would be: "That's right," says the sardarji, "I charged you $349 for sleeping with my wife." "But I already paid her for that!" exclaims the Manager.

          To be fair I bet many of us have no idea what a Sardarji is but after years of surfing the web I just roll with the context and gave it a 5.

            Sardarji = Sikh from the state of Punjab in India, target of most Indian jokes. I believe the Canadian equivalent is the Newfoundlander.

              Regardless of its origins if its funny then give it a +5, if not then ignore and move on apologies that should be a reply for the message below Morale of the story don't reply on CP until you've consumed your first cup of coffee

              As barmey as a sack of badgers Dude, if I knew what I was doing in life, I'd be rich, retired, dating a supermodel and laughing at the rest of you from the sidelines.

                I was kinda surprised when I saw the email notification - it didn't show your edit, so I just thought you were being cryptic or something! :rolleyes:

                  Sardars are the Indian blondes (from a humor stereotype perspective).

                    Newfie yeah. Two Newfies go camping and pack a cooler with sandwiches and beer. After three days of walking, they arrive at a great spot but realize they've forgotten a bottle opener. The first Newfie turns to the second and says, "You've gotta go back and get the opener or else we have no beer. " "No way," says the second. "By the time I get back, you will have eaten all the food." "I promise I won't," says the Newfie. "Just hurry!" Nine full days pass and there's still no sign of the second Newfie. Exasperated and starving, the first Newfie digs into the sandwiches. Suddenly, the second Newfie pops out from behind a rock and yells, "I knew it! I'm not f*cking going!!!!"
