I was resting on the couch yesterday while Kamel was making dinner. I had hit a wall earlier in the day after cleaning the apartment, doing laundry, and running errands. Pow pow pow productivity! When Kamel came out to check on me.
Kamel: You know… I really wish I had a big girdle…
I turned to look at him, waiting for the joke.
Kamel: … so that I could make tons of pancakes.
I thought for a second. Girdle. Girdle. Like, so he could eat more? And still keep his girlish figure? Why does the girdle have to be big? Maybe he is talking about a man-sized girdle? Like man-spanks? Where did he get the term girdle?
Then I had a light bulb moment, all while Kamel is looking at me expectantly for a response.
Me: You mean griddle? A flat service you cook things on?
Kamel: Yeah, what did I say?
Me: Girdle. Like the control top underpants my grandmothers used to wear.
Kamel: Don’t put this on the internet, Lauren.
Yeah, please don’t put it! Hahahahaha
Baaaaahahahaahha!! You guys totally just made my morning!! Thats the best. 🙂
This is amazing. You should *make* a joke about girdles and needing a really big one in the style of yo’ momma jokes. Yo’ girdle so big, you can eat a hundred pancakes and still look like you’re wearing a girdle. ? maybe not
Thank you for putting this on the internet, Lauren.
I do that ALL THE TIME, mixing up those two words. When I read your post and since I’m a TERRIBLE speller I thought you were writing “griddle” from the beginning. (Hopefully that makes Kamel feel better….) 🙂
Hahahaha! Thanks for putting this on the Internet Lauren, totally made my morning!
HAHAHAH!!! If I got paid for every time James said, “Don’t put this on the internet, Christy.” I’d be rich. 🙂 hehehe. Glad I’m not alone! 😉
This is hilarious!!! I love it 🙂 I wish that girdles meant we actually eat MORE griddle pancakes. That would sell better than spanks. It would sell like hotcakes. OH I COULD GO ON.
HAHAHAHA this made my morning. i needed this.
