I prefer this story on the same topic:
On his first day at Harvard a young man from Arkansas approached a couple of seniors.
'Hey, y'all, where's the library at?'
One replied haughtily, 'At Harvard, we prefer not to end a sentence with a preposition.'
The young man thought for a moment, and said, 'Alright. Where's the library at, asshole?'
