Does this cheer you up?

Question

A native tribe took a plane trip. They took their chickens and their goats. When the plane landed the pilot lost control and the plane wing hit the ground and the plane spun round, the chickens and the tribes-people and the goats were flung all over the plane
When it stopped spinning, they picked up their chickens and goats and got off the plane. They thought it was normal. That's how planes do land. They'd never been on a plane before- what did they know?
That's our poor kids today. Its all normal to them and they can cope with it. Dont worry.

It's a joke taken from the movie
Bonfire Of The Vanities
Actor/conedian Alan King delivers the joke

Answer 1

cheers

Answer 2

I get your point, but I'm guessing the threat of terrorism, violence, lack of respect, fear, abuse, paedophilia, poor diet, scary things on TV and global warming are infinitely more scary to modern day kids than some chickens and goats making a racket and flapping about on a plane...

Just because it's new to you, doesn't mean it is any less frightening.

Answer 3

Aye well it pleases me to know that our poor kids today can cope with it, no doubt they can once they have identified what it is. Very philosophical.
