Good Thing They Caught Each Other, Part 5
(My boyfriend and I are watching Pokémon.)
TV: “Who’s That Pokémon?” *shows a silhouette of a Pokémon*
Me: “It’s Arbok!”
TV: “IT’S ARBOK!”
Me: “Told you.”
(My boyfriend nods.)
Me: “Did you know that Ekans is ‘snake’ backward? And Arbok is ‘cobra’ backward?”
Boyfriend: “Only with a K, instead of a C.”
Me: “They’re kids. They don’t know the difference.”
Boyfriend: “Did you know that Stanley Yelnats is Stanley Yelnats backward?”
Me: “I did, in fact!”
Boyfriend: “Well, good.”
