When I was growing up, this was characteristically an anti-Irish joke
(anti-Polak in the US of A).
At some point, there was a weird anti-feminist version.
As far as I know, there was never an Inuit version, presumably because
igloos didn't have lightbulbs.
What did people do for jokes before there were light-bulbs -- "How many
Welshmen does it take to change a candle?"
