Did you enjoy the stew?
Nasrudin was invited to the royal palace for dinner one night. During the meal, the King asked Nasrudin if he enjoyed the stew.
"Yes," replied Nasrudin, "it was fantastic."
"Really?" said the King. "I thought it was pretty bad."
"Yes," said Nasrudin, "you're right--it was quite awful."
"Wait a minute," remarked the King. "You just said it was fantastic a few seconds ago."
"That's correct," explained Nasrudin, "but I live in and serve the town of the King, not the stew."
