A Newfie phones up room service and says: Newfie: "I'd like some pepper please." Bellhop: "Black pepper or white pepper, sir?" Newfie: "Toilet Pepper!"

|The joke is loosely based on fact. The fighters from Newfoundland (not yet a part of Canada) during WWII had an exceptional reputation, and huge losses as they were often sent into the worst by the British command.

Loosely based on fact. My father inlaw had a stroke many years back and during his recovery the doc came out of his room and introduced a speech therapist. Speech Therapist:"He's recovering well but there is going to be alot of work ahead." Mother inlaw: "You do know he's Newfoundland right?" Speech Therapist: "No. Well then, he's probably fine."

My buddy's Newfie girl friend once told me (at super high-speed, and all linked-up and jumbled together) -
"Jus-steeys-warrior-et-an-isle-gettoos-whereyas-be".
It was a while before I figured out I was to stay put and wait.

I've liked the Newfies I've met, but they were all named Angus it seemed. What's up with that?
