Wasn't it Churchill who quipped, "There are some things up with which
I will not put."?
This reminds me of another joke: a young woman from (insert backwoods/
backwater place here) had been accepted at (Harvard/Oxford/whatever)and
was exploring the campus for the first time. She approached an upper-
classman and asked, "Where's the library at?" He replied with a sneer,
"At (Harvard/Oxford/whatever) we don't end a sentence with a preposition."
"Oh. Well, where's the library at, a**hole?"
