You forgot to include your usual bigoted comments in there...pick another race / group this time would ya? In the last 2 days, you've exhausted Blacks, and Asians

Am convinced that you actually think you are funny

I expect I've put some years on the Swiss and Irish too.

I was referring to her trying to sound posh by giving it a soft 'ah' sound though. :)

I knew exactly what you meant - one of the stock of posh pronunciations/words.

A joke


Two not posh women walk up to a counter and decide to check out some of the free samples of perfume.

The first one looks at the second one and asks, "What's this perfume called? It smells familiar."

The second one replies, "It says here it's called Viens a Moi, whatever that means."

A kindly sales lady overhears the two talking, smiles, and tell them "Viens a Moi is French. It means 'Come to Me.'"

The first woman takes another big whiff and exclaims, "No, this doesn't smell like come to me. Bridgette, does this smell like come to you?"

I can just imagine, same as the well dressed ones in Montreal with the lovely French accent I imagine
