Mackem Joke A stinky mackem family head out one Saturday to steal their Christmas shopping. While in JJB Sports, the son picks up a Newcastle football shirt and says to his sister, "I've decided I'm going to be a Toon supporter and I want this strip for my Christmas!" The sister is outraged at this, promptly whacks him round the head and says, "Go talk to yer ma." Off goes the unusually intelligent little lad, with Newcastle shirt in hand and finds his mother. "Mum." "Yes, son?" "I've decided I'm going to be a Toon supporter and I want this strip for Christmas." The mother is outraged at this, promptly whacks him round the head and says, "Go talk to yer da." Off goes this little interbred, with Newcastle shirt in hand and finds his father. "Dad." "Yes, son?" "I've decided I'm going to be a Toon supporterand I want this strip for my Christmas." The father is outraged at this, promptly whacks his son round the head and says, "No son of mine is ever going to be seen in THAT!" About half an hour later, they are all back in the stolen car heading home.The father turns to the son and says, "Son, I hope you have learned something today?" The son turns to his father says, "Yes, Father, I have'. Father says, "Good son, what is it?" The son replies, "I've only been a Toon supporter for an hour and I already hate you mackem bastards."
