The dubious honour of being goat shaggers goes to the Scottish here.
On empty crossroads, seek the eclipse -- for when Sol and Lua align, the lost shall find their way home.Actually there is one thing on Costa Rican humor. It is sort of prevalent in all types of humor seen here and it is what we call "Choteo".
Basically mockery and degradation. We dont have fun unless someone else is being made fun of. Go us!
For example, allow me to put the most renowned comedy group in this country. It is called "La media docena" (The Half a dozen) and it operates via "sketches" sort of thing. One of their most recognized characters is called "Maikol Yordan" which is a mock of rural folk who are unfamiliar with the city. This is the highest grossing national film in here and it is about cost rican's version of rednecks.

It has always been the prerogative of children and half-wits to point out that the emperor has no clothesExactly. It is some sort of weird ass thing some people have going where they decide common names are not good enough for them much less their precious babies so you can meet a thousand iterations of the name "johnathan" with J, Y, I, with or without h, with or without logic, and with or without shame.
it does not help the issue that most of these names come from people in rural areas, or immigrants from Nicaragua.
Most infamous case is a child named after a majestic ship her mother saw once on the docks. So taken she was by this ship she named her child after this magnificent floating contraption that dared tame the mighty seas. So was born "Usnabí" (Oos-Nah-bih)
Or as the mother read it...U.S Navy

@Link To The Future: And precisely what I was driving at with the [Insert Ethnic Group Here] aspect of the jokes. I wouldn't be surprised if that very joke is told all over the world by people about their favourite Butt-Monkey neighbours.
Both Australians and New Zealanders accuse each other of being Sheep Shaggers - and it's probably indicative of the natures of both countries that we each classify that as an acceptable joke. I've heard Poms making the same joke about the Welsh.
