During one of her daily classes a teacher trying to teach good
manners, asked her students the following question: "Michael, if you were
on a date having dinner with a nice young lady, how would you tell her
that you have to go to the bathroom?"
Michael said, "Just a minute I have to go pee."
the teacher responded by saying, "That would be rude and
impolite.
What about you Peter, how would you say it?"
Peter said, "I am sorry, but I really need to go to the
bathroom.
I'll be right back."
That's better, but it's still not very nice to say the word
bathroom at the
dinner table. And you, little Johnny, can you use your brain for once
and show us your good manners?"
I would say: Darling, may I please be excused for a moment?
I have to shake hands with a very dear friend of mine, whom I
hope you'll get to meet after dinner."
