The Boyfriend: “…and they should put more locally-owned restaurants in the airport, because local businesses pay for that airport with their taxes…”
Me: “Yeah, then they just give it all to Chick-Fil-A, which is in Utah.”
The Boyfriend: “Are you sure? I think they are based in the South.”
Me: “I think they are Mormon.”
The Boyfriend: “I know they are churchy, but I don’t know if they are Mormon. They might be Baptist. I know they are closed on Sunday.”
Me: “Hmm wait, maybe they are Seventh Day Adventist.”
The Boyfriend: “No, because…”
Me: “…because then they wouldn’t serve meat!”
The Boyfriend: “Uh yeah, except that they would be closed on Saturday.”
Me: “Oh, yeah.”
The Boyfriend (laughing): “I mean, of all the ways to be churchy, we can go ahead and eliminate them and the Jews.”
Note: Just now in typing that I debated whether to quote him verbatim, what with the words “eliminate” and “Jews” in the same sentence, but The Boyfriend insists on accuracy.
