I don't usually do the joke thing, but this one is close to relevant.

Do you know the difference between a northern zoo and a southern zoo?

At a northern zoo, they post the common name of the animal and the
Latin name. At a southern zoo, they post the common name, the Latin
name, and a recipe.

[note: you could substitute "Cantonese" for "southern" in this joke,
too. Any others?] -aem

(laugh) All kinds of jokes crack me up, even those that poke
fun at stereotypes. I don't actually know any southerners who
don't have their teeth, doesn't mean I don't laugh at 'no tooth'
jokes. The joke is about the stereotype, not the southerner.

I know it is annoying. But then, I can't think of any group of
people who don't have jokes aimed at their stereotype.

I need a recipe for Xtra Large Chipmunk. No wonder I thought it
was a squirrel in my now-dead dryer. Geez.

It's only annoying when purported as the truth.

Honestly, I doublechecked. Had all the chipmunk stripes.
It was as large as a small rat. Big.

Last year we had a chipmunk explosion, I don't know why.
Perhaps the warm winter previously. Too many chipmunks is too many.
Then, much to my surprise, I found out they climb trees. I have
no idea why I didn't know that. Wish I still didn't.
