They sent me this joke today. It’s not very funny, but it is so typically greek it makes me laugh. Can you believe that someone bothered to actually translate it into english? (no it wasn’t me)
Now if it sounds a bit racist to you, I assume that you aren’t greek (enough). Please see it purely as a form of cultural experience:

A man dies and goes to hell. There he finds that there is a different hell for each country. He goes to the German hell and asks, "What do they do here?" He is told: "First they put you in an electric chair for an hour. Then they lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. Then the German devil comes in and whips you for the rest of the day.”

The man does not like the sound of that at all, so he moves on. He checks out the American hell, as well as the Russian hell & many more. He discovers that they are all more or less the same as the German hell. Then he comes to the Greek hell and finds that there is a long line of people from all nationalities waiting to get in.

Amazed, he asks, "What do they do here?" He is told, "First they put you in an electric chair for an hour, and then they lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. Then the Greek devil comes in and whips you for the rest of the day.” “But that is exactly the same as all the other hells. Why are there so many people waiting to get in?"

"Because the maintenance crew is always on strike, so there is no electricity and the electric chair doesn't work. Albanians have stolen all the nails from the bed, and the devil is a former Government employee, so he comes in, signs the register and then goes to have his coffee and play backgammon all day.”
