number #3 .. Francis (1950) is this Francis the Talking Mule? ( or jackass )
Francis wasn't obnoxious or a jerk was he?? he was a funny Mule ..... You are right. Even though the Wiki Dictionary gives three meaning to the word: jackass (plural jackasses) A male donkey. A foolish or stupid person. An inappropriately rude or obnoxious person. I meant the third. Let me fix it: 13 Movies Featuring a Jackass (name the obnoxious jerk) 1. Le Diner de Cons (Pierre Brochant) 2. L'emmerdeur (François Pignon) 3. Die Hard (Richard Thornburg, reporter) 4. Pinocchio (Lampwick) 5. Serendipity (Bloomingdale's salesman) 6. Superman II (Rocky, the bully in the restaurant) 7. Back to the Future (Biff) 8. Jackass series (all) 9. Ghostbusters (Walter Peck) 10. Les Misérables (2000) (Thénardier) 11. Ferris Bueller's Day Off (Ed Rooney) | | | | Last edited: by Wigram |

Well I was pointing out that a Jackass is a donkey/mule , and Francis was just a mule who wasn't obnoxious... Sorry I spoiled your little joke....  | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

Technically, a mule is the offspring of a donkey (usually male or "jack") and a horse (usually mare) and they are sterile. A "jackass" is a male donkey. A "jenny" is a female donkey. So strictly speaking, Francis' father was the jackass! Having to explain a joke tends to diminish its humor! I guess it was a bit obtuse.  | | | | Hal | | | | Last edited: by hal9g |
