The Officer.
[Speak Up]
A young Army officer joins a new regiment. Social life in the regiment revolves around “the officers’ mess” and when the young man goes there for the first time, a senior officer kindly offers to explain how things work:
“Well”, says the senior officer, “If you like drinking, you’ll certainly enjoy Monday. Every Monday evening we receive a large supply of wine, beer and whisky and we get completely smashed, it’s marvellous. Do you enjoy a drink?”
?I’m afraid I don’t drink, actually”, says the young officer.
After an embarrased silence, the senior officer says: “Oh, well, not to worry. You’ll probably enjoy Tuesday. Every Tuesday evening we receive a large supply of unbelievably beautiful women. They come here to the mess and we have the wildest time. It’s absolutely marvellous. I take it that you like women?”
“Er, well, not particularly”, replies the young officer.
After an even more embarassed silence, the senior officer says: “I say, you’re not gay, are you, by any chance?”
“Oh, good Lord, no!” says the young officer.
“Ah, well in that case”, says the senior officer, “you won’t enjoy Wednesday either!”
