    I understand it, but I don't get the joke.

    Maybe it's too late and I'm too tired. :o

    two provos walking along the road in west belfast.
    one says "do you think that guy is in the uvf?"
    the other provo says "ní cheapaim" (this means "i don't think so" in irish, it sounds like "kneecap him" said in a northern accent in english")

    Voilà!
