Joke Department: The Okie vs. The Ivy League

Some of you have heard this one, others have not. Either way, a good laugh for your weekend:

An Okie (substitute your area of the country, if you like) goes to Harvard, and is getting his bearings for the campus, but is having a hard time finding the library. So, he stops another student and asks, "Pardon me, but can you tell me where the library's at?" Well, the student the Okie asks about the library's whereabouts snickers, and then, with his Harvard accent counters, "My dear young man, don't you know it is most improper English to end a sentence with a preposition?"

Now, the Okie didn't only snicker at the Harvardite's response, he also managed to break a smile--before saying, "Oh, my apologies, man. Let me rephrase my question: can you tell me where the library's at..














Asshole?"


There you go, perfect English. That''ll learn him.
