OT - Really REALLY bad joke -

So bad it is good. Give credit to today's Herald Sun Newspaper. Oh, and remember, just like with Polly's Christmas Crack-up, you need to take note of your pronunciation/accent.

A motorist locked himself out of his car and a passer-by stopped to help.

"I'll have your door open in no time," said the stranger, who then began rubbing his bottom up and down on the driver's door.

The motorist found this very odd, but before he could comment, all the locks sprang open.

"How amazing," cried the driver. "How did you do that?????"

"Easy," bragged the stranger.

Are you ready for the punchline???

Are you sure?????

"I'm wearing khaki trousers"

Did any of you watch "Fawlty Towers"?

Manuel had a similar pronunciation problem with "Cart d'OR". lol Maybe opening a bottle of the bubbly would have done the job too!

Okay, so I never got lunch today and I'm really tired, but all I can see is a guy wearing khaki trousers violating a car door. Which is funny in a way, but I'm sure I'm missing the point of the joke and no regional accents are helping me. All but my own North Central Florida child of a Navy rugrat upbringing accent have abandoned me and now I'm even rambling in a post...;-) Help?

Well there is another name for the khaki colour that the Services wear that would fit that meaning - we used to call it "baby s##t brown" rofl

Wonder if that is the derivation for the word?

You're not the only one.

I was trying to figure out how using 'poo' on a car would spring the locks!
