Example: "Bob and myself are responsible for that decision" HARRISBURG, PA - Pennsylvania Governor Edward G. Rendell, touting himself as "The Grammar Governor," signed into law today a controversial bill mandating ten hours per year remedial training for all Pennsylvania blue collar caucasian males to teach them to avoid using the untriggered reflexive. The law is believed to be the first of its kind in the United States.
The Governor explained the impetus for the legislation: "The improper use of the reflexive pronoun among caucasian blue collar males has reached epidemic proportions in Pennsylvania, requiring immediate correction. In their zeal to present themselves as intelligent, the members of this class all too frequently come off as pompous buffoons by saying things such as: 'Bob and myself are responsible for that decision,'" Rendell explained. "This training will be difficult since such persons typically believe that they already know everything."
The Governor also announced that a bill will be introduced tomorrow in the state senate to fund emergency remedial training to teach black females not to scream at the top of their lungs into cell phones. "I will give you an example," he said. The Governor somberly imitated a black female angrily screaming into a cell phone: "''YOU TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT SHE SAID! YOU TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT SHE SAID!' 'YOU TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT SHE SAID!"
