During an etiquette class, the teacher says to her students:
"If you were courting a well-educated young woman from a prominent family, and during a dinner for two you needed to go to the washroom, what would you say to her?"
Mike replies, "Wait a minute, I'm going for a pee."
The teacher says, "That would be very rude and improper on your part."
Johnny replies, "I'm sorry, I need to go to the toilet, I'll be back in a minute."
The teacher says, "That's much better, but to mention the word 'toilet' during a meal is unpleasant."
Charlie says, "My dear, please excuse me for a moment. I have to go shake hands with a personal friend whom I hope to be able to introduce to you after dinner."
