SPA: Looks can be deceiving

So Ted's in bowling league and he sees this youngin' there every week. He finally decides that this is the week he should approach her.

Backstory: She's about 4'10" and has some good thickness. To the naked eye, one would think she's about 16. To Ted's eye, she looks just about right.


So Ted finishes his games and spots the youngin' still bowling. He decides to walk over and see how she's doin.

Ted: I saw you over at the picnic this past Saturday, right?
Youngin': Yeah, you were on the joust thingy.
Ted: Oh yeah, you were right behind us.
Youngin': Boooooooo! (imitating Ted booing a little kid on the joust)

(laughter)

Ted: So what's your name?
Youngin': I'm "Terrie".
Ted: Hi Terrie, I'm "Ted"

(shake hands)

Ted: So who do you know that was at the company picnic?
Terrie: Oh, my Uncle "Wess" works there. You might know him. He's the one with the glasses.
Ted: Naw, there's alot of people that have glasses. Hahahaha.
Terrie: Yeah, true.

("Cary Lane" comes into the picture)

Cary Lane: Did you guys win your games?
Ted: 3 out of 4.
Cary Lane: Lemme see your score sheet.
Ted: Naw, I don't want you to see how sucky I am.
Terrie: I wanna see.

(grabs score sheet)

Cary Lane: Hey, you almost have the same handicap as us.
Terrie: Mine is 70
Cary Lane: Yours is 64, I'm 68.
Ted: So we all suck. We should bowl together.
Cary Lane: Yeah, we should all bowl.
Ted: Yeah, my cousin works here so we can come anytime.
Cary Lane: Which one is your cousin?
Ted: "Valfreno"
Cary Lane: Oh, I had him in a class at Southwestern.

(Ted immediately turns to Terrie)

Ted: Do you go to Southwestern also? (Thinking in his head that she's still in high school, and quite possibly middle school)
Terrie: Oh, no.....I go to......STATE.
Ted: (pleasanntly surprised) Oh snap, I went there too.
Terrie: Oh cool. Are you still there? Or are you done?
Ted: I finished like 3 years ago. So.....are you 21?
Terrie: You know what, it was my 21st b-day like 2 Sundays ago.

(Ted rubs hands ferociously and informs her of upcoming events)


Moral of the story: Looks can be deceiving. Never ASSUME because when you do, you make an ASS out of U and ME.
