A guy walks into a cafe in Georgia, sees another guy sitting at a table and staring at him, and says, “How do?”
The guy at the table doesn’t answer.
The first guy asks the owner, “What is it with that guy at the table? He handicapped or something?”
Owner: “Yeah.”
First guy says, “So sorry to hear that. What’s his problem?”
Owner: “He’s a little slow. He’s from up North but he doesn’t know it yet.”

"I'll tell you," he said, "but you first have to ask me in proper English. This isn't Texas. Here in New York we know that you cannot end a sentence with a preposition like you just did. Now try it again, and do it correctly this time."
The Texan thought for a moment, then said: "Can you tell me where Times Square is at, @SSHOLE?"
