I do so enjoy my conversations with the kid.

A text conversation with the kid. Text follows: Kid: im laughing right now Me: There's an internet shorthand for that. It's "lol" Kid: i know but our texts are usually formal (kind of). Me: Dear child, I find the supposition that our missives are usually formal in nature to be a slight bit exaggerated. I, myself, usually speak in the parlance of our times, of course. Obviously the occasional diminutive of "laugh out loud" would be acceptable. Or perhaps even the proto-version... "Haha!" would even be appropriate in our palavers. Yours truly, Jon P.S. Hope your summer is a smash! Kid: Deer Jon yo yo man i didnt understand shit you just said urs truly, j Me: lol

A friend and I once went to a fast food drive thru and we both ordered double cheeseburgers, then we get to the window and the guy leans out and asks my friend in the driver seat,

“Hey did you want crispy chicken or grilled chicken on your sandwich?”

At which point my friend simply turns and looks at him and says “chicken?” and then the guy in the window leans back a little bit, nods in understanding and says:

“chicken? okay!” and then disappears. What kind of sandwich do you think he got?
