My finest moment of 2012:
Father: (on realising we didn't take the beef out to defrost in time for Christmas Eve Vietnamese Feast) Hmm... Emma... we might have to buy some more beef.
Me: don't you think it'll be ready in time?
Father: not sure... it might be... it is only a small lump...
Me: shall we risk it for a brisket?
HAHAHA. I am hilarious.
Next update = The Frenchie Challenge. Will he be able to get the words 'beach', 'sheet', 'focus' and 'hassle' into one sentence in front of my parents in an accent that renders all of these words hilariously rude? Your suggestions for the perfect line in the 'Comments' box, please.

Another amazing meat pun was heard at the Caravelle this afternoon when a contingency that included the De Tang Clan attended a posh birthday brunch.
ReplyDeleteMe: (to chef who has just served me something delicious from the carvery) cảm-ơn*.
Chef: No, it's lamb.
LOLZ!
*'Thank you' in Vietnamese, pronounced 'gam-on'... get the joke, now?
Kermit says it's a 'you had to be there' kind of thing...
Oh puns! I love it. xx
ReplyDeleteDefinition of loser: I just read this again, a month later, and I still genuinely laughed, and am still giggling a little. God, that pun is so funny. Brisket...
