Ethan was introducing his buddy Jeff to a sweet little piece at a function one night.

Ethan: “Susie, have you met Jeff?”
Jeff: “It is nice to meet you Susie.”
Susie: “Nice to meet you too, Jeff. Good grief, how tall are you!?”
Jeff: “six foot seven I believe.”
Ethan: “HAHAHA, ask him how tall his dad is!!”
Susie: “oh really, how tall is he?”
Jeff: “Ethan you’re bastard.” Walks off pissed
Susie: “huh, what is going on?”
Ethan: “HAHAHA, his dad doesn’t have any legs!”
Susie: SMACK “you ARE a dick!”

Here is a little ditty about Ethan and Jeff. Jeff is a tall, quiet man, at least six foot seven. Ethan, not so much. Maybe five foot eight. He was a very charismatic person. Could charm anyone anytime. One evening in college after some Red Dog these two knuckleheads hatched a good time for the party that night.

Jeff: outside trying not to laugh
Susie: “I am sooo sorry about that Jeff. I didn’t know.”
Jeff: “no problem Susie. It isn’t your fault. I don’t know what is wrong with Ethan. He brings that up every time someone mentions how tall I am. He does it to shock people into not mentioning the height issue.”
Susie: “he is such an ASS!” and goes back inside.

The concept is a simple one. Shame folks into a life lesson. “Yes, I played basketball. Yes I need to watch out for that ceiling fan, low eaves, etc…”. Too bad they didn’t practice it on some one less attractive. Would have been nice to keep talking to Susie.

Susie: “Why are you such an idiot!? He is very upset out there right now.”
Ethan: “HAHAHA, Susie seriously it is a joke! His dad is fine!”
Susie: “What are you talking about?”
Ethan: “see here he comes now, dude get over here and tell her it was just a joke.”
Jeff: back in the room “man what are you talking about? I am tired of this crap.” Giggling
Susie: “you are both assholes.” Walks off

Aaaaaand scene.
