Old classic corny story

There was a story I read a long time ago and this sub made me want to find it.

A traveler came to a village and asked an old man at the gate, “What are the people like in this town?” The old man replied, “Well, what were the people like where you came from?” The traveler said, “They were rude, unfriendly, and dishonest.” The old man said, “I’m afraid you’ll find the people here are the same.”

A few days later, another traveler came and asked the same question: “What are the people like in this town?” Again, the old man asked, “What were the people like where you came from?” This traveler said, “They were kind, generous, and honest.” The old man smiled and said, “Then you’ll find the people here are the same.”
