Recycle
A
Trini is having breakfast one morning; coffee, croissants, bread, butter
and jam when a Guyanese man, chewing gum, sits down next to him.
The
Trini ignores the Guyanese who, nevertheless, starts a conversation:
Guyanese:
"You Trini folk eat the whole bread??"
Trini
(in a bad mood): "Of course."
Guyanese:
(after blowing a huge bubble)"We don't.
In
Guyana, we only eat what's inside. The crusts, we collect in a container,
recycle it, transform them into croissants and sell them to the Trinis."
The
Guyanese has a smirk on his face and the Trini listens in silence.
The
Guyanese persists: "Do you eat jelly with the bread??"
Trini:
"Of Course."
Guyanese:
(cracking his gum between his teeth and chuckling). "We don't.
In
Guyana we eat fresh fruit for breakfast, then we put all the peels, seeds,
and leftovers in containers, recycle them, transform them into
jam
and sell the jam to the Trinis."
The
Trini then asks: "Do you have sex in Guyana?"
Guyanese:
"Why of course we do", the Guyanese says with a big smirk.
Trini:
"And what do you do with the condoms once you've used them?"
Guyanese:
"We throw them away, of course."
Trini:
"We don't. In Trinidad, we put them in a container, recycle them,
melt
them down into chewing gum and sell them to Guyana."
