daofeishi Posted August 21, 2008 at 09:07 PM Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 at 09:07 PM We all know about Michael Phelps' astonishing Olympic achievements. With regards to that, I want to share a joke I got from one of my Chinese friends: 菲尔普斯夺的8金以后： 各国对游泳比赛蛙泳、仰泳、蝶泳、自由泳×100、200、400、1500导致金牌过多感 到非 常不满，纷纷要求增加自己优势项目的金牌数目。 巴西提出： 足球应该分为3人、5人、7人、11人×沙滩、室内、草地。 中国提出： 乒乓球应该分为直板、横板、直板双打、直板单打、直板横板混双。 美国提出： 跳水应该分为1m 2m 3m 4m 5m 6m 7m 8m 9m 10m 英国提出： 马术应该分成黑马马术、白马马术、红马马术、褐马马术、皇马马术、斑马马术。 肯尼亚提出： 长跑应该分为10000米、11000米、12000米、13000米。。。 日本提出： 所有男女混合项目应该增加3p、4p、5p、6p、7p。。。群p。。。500p。 泰国提出： 除了男子和女子项目外，所有应该加上人妖组。 唯独韩国在这方面没有要求，他们大声喊到： 菲尔普斯是韩国人 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
md1101 Posted August 22, 2008 at 12:25 AM Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 at 12:25 AM i'm probably looking into too much.. but is there any background to this joke i don't get? do the chinese say the koreans often claim chinese things as their own or something? (if so, then it is quite funny). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skylee Posted August 22, 2008 at 02:16 AM Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 at 02:16 AM Koreans will find the joke offensive. Take a look -> 'Michael Phelps Is Korean' and Other Old Wives’ Tales This story was posted on Chinese portal site Dongbeiwang, or Northeast Web, on Tuesday. “According to the Chosun Ilbo, a history professor at Sungkyunkwan University Park Boon-gyung claimed that the U.S. swimmer Michael Phelps is of Korean descent,” the story starts. “Around 1,000 B.C., Koreans living in Jeju Island on the southern tip of Korea crossed the Pacific Ocean and settled in America. A large number of them moved to the east coast and settled in present-day Baltimore, Maryland. The Phelps are Maryland natives and therefore, there is a big possibility that the Phelps are of Korean lineage. Doesn’t that explain how a swimming genius came into being in inland Maryland? He has blood of Koreans who came to America by crossing the Pacific running in his veins.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
md1101 Posted August 22, 2008 at 03:15 AM Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 at 03:15 AM ha.. there's always some conspiracy behind it all. even if this history professor did say what he's claimed to have said.. it sounds like he was just having a bit of fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gougou Posted August 22, 2008 at 04:21 AM Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 at 04:21 AM I also liked this. It's a bit overdone towards the end, I think, but the water splashing bit in the beginning and the look on the guys face crack me up.
