Hawaii anyone?

I'm not. I'll get them however I can get them.

However, can I lay claim to being a malasada snob? And what a travesty are those cream-filled malasadas you can get at that place in Ala Moana Shopping Center (assuming it is still there)?

Q: How did the Portuguese burn his face on Halloween?
A: Bobbing for malasadas.

That was the first joke I learned in Hawaii, in a conversation with other students about Hawaii-specific humor (requiring knowing what a malasada is and also knowing that Portuguese take the role of Pollacks in stupid-people jokes).

The second one was a German explaining the proper pronunciation of Hawai'i (the punchline being "you're velcome"). Unfortunately I suck at remembering jokes and so don't remember the third or later ones.
