Tillie and Millie, two old girlfriends, met for lunch.

Tillie: “I married a wealthy clothing manufacturer, and he bought me a yacht for my birthday.”

Millie: “Astounding!”

Tillie: “I have charge accounts in all the department stores.”

Millie: “Astounding!”

Tillie: “I have a drawer full of rubies and emeralds, and my husband bought me a twenty-five carat diamond ring for our second anniversary.”

Millie: “Astounding!”

Finally, Tillie smiles and changes the subject.

Tillie: “Enough about me. What have you been doing?”

Millie: “Oh, I’m going to charm school.”

Tillie: “Really? What did you learn there?”

Millie: “Well, for one thing, they taught me to say ‘astounding’ instead of ‘bullsh*t.’”
