I'm the AKA PP. I agree that it is unusual that you don't know either of those references. No, it's not just a super old thing. The William Tell Overture is one of the most well known pieces of classical music and has been used for many media productions (of various media forms), the Lone Ranger being one of the most well known. But The William Tell Overture is played for many 4th of July fireworks festivals and is frequently used as an underscore to shows, comedies and cartoons. If you listen to it, I'm betting you'll recognize it and realize that you knew it, but just didn't know the name.  |

 Great ABCD joke. Doodh is milk in Hindi.  |

						Q. What is the difference between a hoover and a harley?

 Okay, I'm a geek. This one made me LOL. And I think my friend who is a Latin/English teacher will love this one.  |

						Two old friends got together for coffee
 Friend A: my husband just bought me a new diamond ring Friend B: That's nice Friend A: And he took me to Switzerland where we stayed in a 4 star hotel Friend B:That's nice Friend A: Then he gave me an unlimited budget to decorate our vacation home in the Hamptons Friend B: That's nice Friend A: What did your husband do for you this year? Friend B: Oh he sent me to charm school Friend A: Charm school? What for? Friend B: To learn how to say that's nice instead of f*&^k you  | 
| Oh my gosh! Love the charm school joke, partly because it's a variation on a joke my dad used to tell. He always loved a good joke. This was like a hug from my dad.... | 
| Charm school continued: In his version, the one woman had a thick Italian accent and had been given lessons from a language teacher. That's where she learned to say "Atsa nice" instead of "Bull ****!" | 
							
						
 Once someone disparages a thing as "super old people" or "Boomer" they're highly unlikely to back down. Better to look like a jerk than an idiot.  | 
						
 That is funny! Similar to: What's the difference between a BMW and a porcupine? On a porcupine, the pricks are on the outside.  | 
							
						
 That person failed. They made themselves look like both a jerk and an idiot.  | 
						Seriously? There's an Italian version? That's gotta be better than when I first heard it in Alabama.  | 
							
						
 Only it's usually 1812 Overture for the 4th of July.  |
