Homebase

Can I have some Irish Sausages, please?" asked the
Irishman, walking up to the counter.
The assistant looked at him and asked: "Are you Irish?"
"If I had asked you for Italian sausage, would you
ask me if I was Italian? "Demanded the Irishman indignantly.
"Or, if I asked for German Bratwurst, would you
ask me if I was German?"
Then, warming to his theme, he went on: "Or if I
asked you for a Kosher hot dog, would you ask me if I was Jewish?
"Or, if I asked you for a taco, would you ask me
if I was Mexican? Would Ya? Would Ya?"
The assistant said: "Well no". Suitably encouraged by the success of his
logic, the Irishman steps it up a gear.
"And if I asked you for frog's legs, would you ask
me if I was French"?
"What about Danish Bacon, would you ask me if I was Danish?"
"Well no, I probably wouldn't," conceded the assistant. So, now bursting
with righteous indignation, the
Irishman says, "Well, all right then, why did you ask me if I'm Irish
just because I asked for Irish sausages?" The assistant replied: "Because
you're in Homebase"
