So, as the title says, a new dad moved in next door with his young wife and infant son.
All the houses in the neighborhood are fairly modest and perfect for new families and first time homebuyers, so we get a lot of those.
As they were unloading, I decided to do the neighborly thing and quickly introduce myself without getting too much in their way.
While we were chatting, his wife comes out with the LARGEST great dane Iโve ever seen.
The shock on my face mustโve been obvious because he quickly explained, with a bit of an annoyed tone, โYea, thatโs my wifeโs dog. I still have my childhood cat, but now this is my biggest pet, Peeve.โ
โCome say hello, Peeve!โ
And on the way back, my son and I tortillaed through three bags of family size Doritos.
We would have pointed fingers at one another, but they were already in our mouths. Sucky situation, I know.
I turned the car around and said, "Son, now our mission is snackfued."
Salty from our spell of bad luck, we licked our lips and hightailed it back to Walgreens. I sent a MSG to my wife to tell her about the crunch we were in.
Many of our guests had already arrived when we finally returned, holding up our carb-earned trophies.
It was then that my son's friend complimented our modest country estate: "Cool Ranch!"
My dad, who is Indian, lives in a small college town with a small community of modest, nerdy Indians.
Enter the one fashionista who shows up at a get together sporting a DKNY shirt. My dad walks up, seemingly completely ignorant, and loudly asks, "WHAT IS THIS DONKEY SHIRT?"
Fashionista cried. I died.
Me: "That's what moth balls are made of."
GF: "Really? Is that why they hate them?"
Me: "No, it's actually because they're so modest."
GF: Gives me puzzled look
Me: "They don't want you to cedar balls."
