Two informally dressed ladies happened to start up a conversation during an endless wait in the LAX airport.
The first lady was an arrogant California woman married to a wealthy man.
The second was a well mannered elderly woman from the South.
When the conversation centered on whether they had any children, the California woman started by saying, “When my first child was born, my husband built a beautiful mansion for me.”
The lady from the South commented, “Well, isn’t that precious?”
The first woman continued, “When my second child was born, my husband bought me a beautiful Mercedes-Benz…
Again, the lady from the South commented, “Well, isn’t that precious?”
The first woman continued boasting, “Then, when my third child was born, my husband bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet.
Yet again, the Southern lady commented, “Well, isn’t that precious?”
The first woman then asked her companion, “What did your husband buy for you when you had your first child?”
“My husband sent me to charm school,” declared the Southern lady.
“Charm school?” the first woman cried, “Oh, my God! What on earth for?”
The Southern lady responded, “Well for example, instead of saying, “Who gives a shit?” I learned to say, “Well, isn’t that precious”….
Thanks Gene
hmm… does the entire United States hate California?
Nah! I love California. If it weren’t for Vegas, I’d be going to California more often.
The best thing about Cali is that it is not next to Georgia.
yea Jonco Vegas is as close as I have ever got to Cali and thats too close
we don’t hate California we hate the attitude of the Californian people that move into our neighborhoods and complain that i spend time with my family instead of having a manicured and well landscaped yard.
my sister worked in a sporting goods store in Alaska. a couple from California came in and said that we needed to pass a law that would stop the orca’s from eating the poor salmon. i kid you not my sister told them to get back in the RV and leave the state.
California, Scmalifornia. It’s just the setup, snobs!
BTW: when my wife first told me this, it was “etiquette school”, “that’s nice”, and F.U.,beatch.
So now we relive it every time I (or anyone) says “That’s nice”
Keeps me in “trouble” a lot; like I need any help
Oh!
And the beatch just told me to mention it was two belles at a reunion.
Course I told her “That’s nice”
And I’m from Missouri…so don’t mess wid me cauz I’m close to the sitemaestro!
ahh.. feeling the love. You know *stirrin up the pot* not all Californian’s are as you all describe. I’d admit, those type of people get on my nerves too, but I think people like that are in the more city areas (LA & SF).
*drawing attention away* Hey, look at that!
As crowded as it is in Cali, referring to LaLa Land and San Fran city areas is just about covering a third of the state. And there are a lot of truly odd folks any where north and east of Napa all the way to the state line. Trust me. I’ve been there.
Perhaps she wasn’t an arrogant California woman and was actually just a California Senator talking to a Brigadier General…
That’s nice, Ma’am….

lol Indidel, oh, I’m sure they are everywhere, just more open about it here…
Correction, sorry *infidel
I was born and raised in California. I am sorry to say that there are people from CA give us a bad name. As for what ALN said about spending time with family I agree. My family comes first. Not my lawn. Maybe I am that way because my parents are not from CA and have instilled values. My parents are from Colorado and South Dekota. There are some good people that live hear in California.
