Franco and transition jokes
How is it to live in Spain? --We can't complain... that is... we can't complain.
Why did they coronate the king in a submarine? --Deep down he's not so bad.
We lived better against Franco. [Vivimos major contra Franco; variation on "Vivimos mejor con Franco.].
A little boy is muttering to himself on the street, "Franco is a monkey, Franco is a monkey..." He is stopped by the police, and offers as an excuse, that there are many people named Franco. The Guardia Civil says, "Yes, but only one of them is a monkey."
Franco's wife wakes up horny and tells him, "let's fuck," so he gets up and signs five death sentences.
Vallejo joke: you know Ballón A.'s edition of manuscripts is reported on in several places but nobody has the link to right (it's an online repository). I am starting to wonder whether it exists
