A Texan, a New Yorker, and a New Jersey
resident were drinking their favorite beverage in a bar.
The Texan drained his glass of tequila,
threw the half-full bottle up in the air, drew and fired his pistol, shattering the
bottle. The other two were shocked at his ruining perfectly good tequila.
The Texan, however, simply drew himself up
and announced: "Where I come from, we have plenty of tequila."
The New Yorker, not to be outdone, drained
his glass of wine, threw the half-full wine bottle into the air, drew and fired his
pistol, also shattering his bottle.
Looking over at the other two with an air
of superiority characteristic of New Yorkers, he announced, "Where I come from, we
have plenty of fine wine and the best of everything!"
The New Jersey resident drained his bottle
of Yuengling Lager, threw it up in the air, drew his pistol and shot the New Yorker dead.
He then caught the bottle on the way down and showed it to the Texan: "Where I come
from," he said slowly, "we recycle bottles AND we have too many fucking
NewYorkers."
