"In what aisle, could I find good old Newfoundland cod fish?"
The clerk looks at him and says, "Are you a Newfoundlander?"
The guy (clearly offended) says, "Well, yes I am. But let me ask you something.
If I had asked for Italian sausage, would you ask me if I was Italian?
If I had asked for Polish sausage, would ask me if I was Polish?
Or if I had asked for German bratwurst, would you ask me if I was German?
Or if I asked for a kosher hot dog, would you ask me if I was Jewish?
Or if I had asked for a taco, would you ask if I was Mexican?
Would you? Would you?"
The clerk says, "Well, no!"
"If I asked for some Irish whiskey, would you ask if I was Irish?"
"Well, I probably wouldn't!"
With deep self-righteous indignation, the guy says, "Well then, why did you
ask me if I'm a Newfoundlander when I asked for Newfoundland Cod Fish?"
The clerk replies, "Because you're at Home Depot."
