Tenticular Tension
(I am at the work Christmas party. Everyone is allowed to bring a ‘date’ and also their kids, if they like. One coworker brings his sister who was visiting, and his nephew who is around six years old. We are at a buffet restaurant that specializes in Chinese food. The place is packed. My coworker has a scoop of octopus salad on his plate, and is teasing his nephew with the tentacles.)
Coworker: “C’mon, try it!”
Nephew: “NO!”
Coworker: “I ate it! What are you, chicken?”
Nephew: “I don’t want to—”
Coworker: *chicken noises* “Buck buck buck!”
(The nephew shouts back so that the entire restaurant can hear.)
Nephew: “UNCLE! I AM NOT GOING TO EAT YOUR TESTICLES!”
