A brief English lesson


No English dictionary has been able to adequately explain the subtle difference between the words complete and finished, at least in a way that is easy to understand.

Some people, in fact, say there is no real difference between complete and finished. However, we beg to differ, and to illustrate our point offer the following:

If you marry the right woman, you are complete.

If you marry the wrong woman, you are finished.

Oh, and if the right woman catches you with the wrong woman, you are completely finished!

All clear now?
