There's these 3 blokes (Yank with a broke arm, Pom on crutches, and an Aussie with a bad back) in the pub having a drink.

The yank goes up to the bar to buy a round and the bartender says "You see that guy at the end there? Thats Jesus"
The Yank says "Godamn if it aint, get one for him while your at it!"

A short time later the Pom goes up to the bar and the bartender tells him about the distinguished guest.
The Pom said "Good lord, so it is, make sure the good chap has a fresh drink will you"


Then its the Aussies turn, same deal, Jesus up the end,
"No **** mate" give him a pot of ya best.


Not long after that, Jesus finishes his drinks and heads over to the 3 at the table
"You 3 have shown generosity and kindness when obviously you have dificulties of you own, so I would like to do something for you"

He then touches the Yank on the head and his cast falls off, arm fixed.
He touches the Pom on the head and his legs are fixed.
He reaches out for the Aussie who jumps up screaming

"Dont touch me!!! I'm on compo!!"

hehe...

(That is, assuming "compo" being somekind of "nice" drug like morphine.. )
 
No, it's like worker's comp, or some kind of disability payment. Apparently it's easy to get on government disability aid in Australia, even for something as simple as a bad back.

Ohhh.. Thanks for enlighting my stupid a55 !.....

(Although it sorta worked with the drug as well...)
 
Poms are Brits.

According to urbandictionary.com

It comes from 'Prisioner of Her Majesty' which is what the Oz lot used to call the brits when they were 'set free' in Australia

(:
 
I'm a pom.:)

I didn't get the joke until COMPO was defined afterwards.
