During one of her daily classes, a teacher trying to teach good
manners, asked her students the following question: "Michael, if you were on a date having dinner with a nice young lady, how would you tell her that you have to go to the bathroom?"
Michael said, "Just a minute I have to go pee."
The teacher responded by saying, "That would be rude and impolite. What about you Sherman, how would you say it?"
Sherman said, "I am sorry, but I really need to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back."
"That's better, but it's still not very nice to say the word bathroom at the dinner table. And you, little Edward, can you use your brain for once and show us your good manners?"
"I would say: Darling, may I please be excused for a moment? I have to shake hands with a very dear friend of mine, whom I hope to introduce you to after dinner."
The teacher fainted... 翻譯： 有個老師想教會學生們什麼叫做禮貌。
一天，在她的課堂上，她問到：“Michael，如果你和一個年輕女士共進晚餐的話，你會用什麼辦法來告訴她你想上廁所？”Michael說：“我想去尿尿，馬上回來。”
老師回到：“這樣說不夠禮貌。Sherman，你會怎麼說？”
Sherman說：“對不起，我需要上一下洗手間。我很快就會回來的。”
“不錯，好些了。但是仍然欠缺點什麼，在餐桌上最好不要提到洗手間這樣的詞。Edward，你能想想你會用什麼好態度來應對嗎？”
“我會說：親愛的，能不能失陪一小會兒。我現在要趕去和我一個非常要好的朋友握個手，我飯後也正想把他介紹給你認識呢。”
老師暈倒...
