I was to Paris on a business trip once and one of our fellow travelers was a woman who was from the area and she was invaluable helping us get around. Laurence had a very heavy French accent and would often pronounce English words in a most hilarious manner, which was ok with us because her English was much better than our French.
Another guy on our trip named Paul who was from the states and worked with Laurence was a Mormon, and I mention that because it matters here.
One evening while Paul was in the next room, we were goofing around (yes, it was THAT trip), and someone called someone else a moron loudly. Laurence went white as a ghost and her eyes became like saucers. She lowered her voice and said in her loudest whisper:
"Shhh! Do not say such a thing, because I just found out that PAUL is a moron!"
