A joke for Stephanie

Southern male voice: I met this woman the other day and I asks her, where y'all from? and she says "I am from a place where we don't end our sentences in propositions." So I says to her "Where y'all from, bitch?"

ha!

Jason told me this joke. He tells it so well- with this hilarious uppity proper accent for what the woman says.
Every time I hear it I think of my mother. She was a stickler for speaking properly (though not snobby about it like the woman in the joke). I think she would have liked this joke.

Especially since times have now changed (and Maman accepted it) - it is no longer improper to end a sentence with a preposition. Maman accepted it much more easily than I did!
