and they say that english is a lost art

Two overheard remarks Christmas eve….

in Kmart (bohemia) -

Woman: you’re not allowed to say Ho, ho , ho anymore.
Man: Why? What the hell am I supposed to say?
Woman: its derogatory to women. You can’t call them ‘ho’s’.
Man: That’s all political crap. It’s all (expletive).
Woman: it IS (expletive).
Man: I say what I want to say.

I say ‘Merry Christmas’. If people
don’t like it, they can go to hell.

in Bj’s (Islandia)later -

Spanish speaking couple buying a 5999.00 50″ flat plasma TV with 2
credit cards. There’s a problem with one of the cards going through -

Man: Who - who I gotta - talk?

Folks, you cannot make this stuff up..
