Can’t find the strip, but Hagar is having a drink with an Irish Munk. The text goes something like this:
Munk: Wouldn’t it be nice if all people could speak the same language?
Hagar: Yes, but how the h*ll are we going to teach them all Norwegian?
Always got a kick out of this one.

[QUOTE=ombugge;183208]Can’t find the strip… [/QUOTE]
I have been searching the web occasionally for years to find one from a National Lampoon “Politenessman” strip circa 1980. It shows a mate and helmsman of a floundering ship with appropriately nautical language. Politenessman refuses to rescue them until they clean up their language. The sanitized version of the same dialogue includes stuff like “au contraire, you incestuous fellow…” Anyone with a clue wtf I’m talking about know where I can find that strip…?
The signalling mirror that old time tanker mates used to carry had an amazing resemblance to a stainless steel hanky…
We had this posted on the research ship I worked on. One of my favorites from The New Yorker.
