"you rememeber that halloween?" "hey look at uncle joe... he looks so young.." YOU know. so inevitibly, they would spot the photos of the chinese people and ask... "who's that kid?" and well i had made up this whole backstory for him. "dont you remember little jimmy? YOU know, carla's kid...?" and i'd point to the chinese woman in the other photo. "yeah carla? she and becky (the other woman in that same photo) were best friends a year behind us at school? god that time she got drunk at (insert actual name of actual person we knew here)'s party and danced on the table?! i thought we'd never get her down... and how after graduation she hooked up with (insert name of actual guy we went to high school with here) and he knocked her up, but they didnt get married and had jimmy?" well at this point i can tell theyre thinking REALLY hard to try and remember carla and becky who never existed but who evidently went to the same parties as us. after i let them sweat for five minutes i confess that they came with the frame. they laugh and want to help me out with the joke the next time i have someone over.
gahd i'm weird...
Inventive!

). Had the jock types not been there, I'd have loved to go to one of the parents and tell them to put the kids out of they're misery. I told mom my idea (after we left w/ good reason) and I had to hold her back from walking in there, laughing her ass off, and telling those parents to 'mercifly put down they're children'.
Boy, as funny as that would'a been, it'd be kinda painful if we ever made it outta there.
