Politeness
Two women are talking in a park. The first one says, "See my new diamond ring? My husband bought it for me." The second one answers, "Oh, that's nice! That's really, really nice!" The first one continues, "And see that shiny new car parked over there? My husband bought it for me." The second one replies, "Oh, that's nice! That's really, really nice!" The first one reveals, "And you know that big white house at the top of the hill? My husband is gonna buy that for me." The second one answers, "Oh, that's nice! That's really, really nice!" The first one apologizes, "Oh, I'm sorry, here I am, going on and on about myself! Tell me, what have you been up to?" The second one responds, "Well, I've just completed a course on politeness." The first one asks, "A course on politeness? Why would you spend time on something like that?" The second one answers, "Because I used to say, 'Who gives a damn?' but now I say, 'Oh, that's nice! That's really, really nice!'"
