Hey, hey! Is this thing on?

You see, there are these two tourists walking along the beach in Hawaii. And they are discussing the proper pronunciation of the word ‘Hawaii’. One of them is like, “The authentic pronunciation is Havai’i. I’m certain of it.” And the other is like, “That’s ridiculous. How come I haven’t heard of this?” So the other is like, “Well, let’s ask a local.” And the other is all, “Ok, then.”

So they see a guy walking toward them and he has the beachy je-ne-sais-quoi that says to the tourists… this is the guy to ask. Ok, the one guy says, “Excuse me. We’re having a little disagreement about the pronunciation of the name of this state. Is it Hawaii or Havai’i ?” And the guy says, “It’s pronounced Havai’i.” And the one who feels all vindicated and whatnot is like, “See! I told you! Thank you, sir. Thanks a lot!” And the local guy says, ”You’re velcome.”
