The ONLY time I corrected someone for ending a sentence with a preposition
did not go well............

HIM::: "Can you please tell me where the Inter-mural building is AT ?"

ME:::: (haughtily) " Yes, of course.....BUT.....at THIS University we do not end our sentences with a preposition."

HIM:::: "Oh, I am so Sorry........
...........could you tell me where the Inter-mural building is at, A$$HOLE."
