The teacher is talking to a group of 9th grade boys about table etiquette.
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 rest room?", the
teacher asked.
"Just a minute, I have to go pee", he said.
The teacher replied, "That would be rude and impolite."
What about you? Paul, how would you say it?
"I am sorry, but I really need to go to the bathroom, I'll be
right back."
The teacher responded, "That's better, but it's still not very
mannerly to say the word 'bathroom' at the table."
"And you, Johnny C, are you able to use your intelligence 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 you'll get to meet after dinner."
The teacher fainted.
