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?"

"Well, before I gave birth to my 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 sh_t?" I learned to say, "Well, isn't that precious"...
 
That's a good one......

Hmm, but what euphemism do Southern gentlemen use? Surely they won't say precious. Not even a British male can get away using that term -- only Gollum can

Most of the time we just mutter "[censored] Yankee" and keep moving on. However, with really obnoxious characters, we say "Y'all mind if I reload while your talking?"
