A businessman from the midwest arrives in Boston for a meeting....?!
Question: His friends have recommended that while in town he should visit a seafood restaurant to try Boston scrod (yes, that's a real fish). So on the way from the airport to his hotel, he asks the cabdriver:
"Hey, cabbie, what's a good place in this town to get scrod?"
The cabdriver looks into the rear view mirror and says,
"Buddy, in the 20 years that I've been driving this cab, I've been asked that question many times, and in many ways. But you're the first joker who ever asked it in the pluperfect subjunctive tense!!!!!"

What in the heck is pulpowahtits subjective tense
Cabbie thought he was asking "where's a good place to get screwed?" Right? pluperfect subjunctive tense - meaning the "replica"- so to say-- of the meaning of what cabbie thought he was trying to say.
