My entire English group signed their work 'Adam' earlier.

It was then that I realised none of them had fully understood what I meant when I told them to write a story in first person.

Math, THE Universal Language.

There are three cats in a race across the English channel: An English cat named One Two Three, a German cat named Eins Zwei Drei, and a French cat named Un Deux Trois.

The English and German cats finish and get their awards, but the French cat never shows up. Why is that?

Because Un Deux Trois cat sank.

PIRATES!!!

Once apon a time, there was a very notorious pirate. He would win in battle every time. One day on the open sea, the watchman reported to the captan, "Sir, there is an enemy ship coming our way!"
The captan replied, "Bring me my red fighting shirt!"
They won the battle.

The next day, the watchman spotted another ship, so he alerted the captan. The captan replied, "Bring me my red fighting shirt!"
They won that day.

The watchman saw another ship on the horizon, so he alerted the captan. As usual, he replied, "Bring me my red fighting shirt!"
This time, the watchman asked, "Why a red fighting shirt?"
The captan repled that it was so he didn't look weak.
They won that battle.

The next day, the watchman saw a whole armada of enemy warships on the horizon, and so he alerted the captan.
The captan replied, "Bring me my brown fighting pants!"

The brown pants works better if the reason behind the red shirt is:

"If I get wounded in battle the blood does not show up through the red shirt. If the enemy does not know I am wounded they will not know I am weakened."

"Yeah, right!"

A linguistics professor was lecturing to his class one day. "In English," he said, "a double negative forms a positive. In some languages though, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative." "However," he added, "there is no language wherein a double positive can form a negative."

^ I ain't never been no good with logic jokes, but I don't half not get that one, oh no.




EDIT: I think now I got it. It's about the joke's title. Ok ok ok... But does sarcasm count? It's only a negative with the correct intonation, isn't it? And the linguist in the joke is of course only right about the double negatives if he ignores loads of non-standard Englishes...
