Description
For my self defense, Spain also has jokes like this *don't kill me*Lately I've been trying to understand what's exactly the portuguese humor, ever since I saw this [link]
In that blog there was this joke too, but only in portuguese, so I decided to illustrate it instead of simply translate it
Now a little explanation for those who don't get the joke
First of all Port and Spain don't like each other. Even though their relationship has improved greatly in these last few years, they still pull pranks on each other every now and then (much like England and France). Nothing as serious as this though, since it's only a joke and not an actual event, but it does illustrate the general feeling
Second, Iberian men are still pretty much macho in nature, so when they're not trying to prove who's the biggest man to each other, they're hitting on girls. And in this case the obvious target is the blond
So what's really happening is, Port is taking advantage of the presence of the women to get even with Spain when no one's looking (typical "chinaman's revenge")

Ah
Well portuguese isn't exactly an easy language. The verbal and written version evolved somewhat independently, before scholars finally decided to to note down the grammatical structure. So it's no wonder what you read isn't straight forward to pronounce

Azorean might not be a good example to listen around though. Compared to the mainland portuguese they have a weird pronunciation

Pretty funny

Oh? You see Portugal involved much? In the whole countries representing characters thing?

Truth to be told he prefers to avoid trouble whenever possible. Though at the same time it's depressing how ignored he gets

Ha, I know this joke in German, only with two random guys, a pretty young girl and her mother, and it's a kissing noise to be heard instead of groping ^^

I guess this joke is funny independently of who's involved
