Friday funny…finished

 

P1230868


No English dictionary has been able to adequately explain the difference between these two words:

COMPLETE and FINISHED.

In a recent linguistic competition held in Toronto, attended by supposedly the best in the world, a Newfoundlander was the clear winner with a standing ovation which lasted over 5 minutes.

The final  question was:  How do you explain the difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED in a way that is easy to understand?

Some people say there is NO difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED.

Here is his astute answer:

When you marry the right woman, you are COMPLETE.

When you marry the wrong woman, you are FINISHED.

AND, when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are COMPLETELY FINISHED!!!

He won a trip to travel the world in style, and a case of 25 year old Scotch.

Very smart Newfy, I would say.
