Chips, soda, napkins… Is this the shopping list for the party?
“Yes.”
Mom, you wrote this, right?
“Yes. Are you making fun of me?”
Well, Mom, I’m not quite sure what L-A-Z-A-R-N-I-A is.
“Lazarnia.”
Lasagna.
“Yes, Lazarnia!”
(Barely able to stifle laughter) Mom, that’s not really how you spell it.
“Oh yeah? How do you spell it?”
L-A-S-A-G-N-A.
“No, you’re lying to me again, David! There’s no ‘G’ in Lazarnia!”
(Laughing hysterically now) Yes, yes there is!
“No, you’re trying to trick me!”
No! I’m not kidding! (Almost falling off chair) It’s Italian! L-A-S-A-G-N-A!
“I don’t believe you.”
Oh my God, Mom, why would I… okay fine, honestly, I’m not lying to you this time, it really does have a ‘G’ in it. Look, here’s Nick: Nick, how do you spell ‘Lasagna’?
“L-A… Z…A-N-I-A…” (Stars snickering.)
“See, David, you were still trying to trick me! I spelled it right.”
Mom, seriously, ‘Lasagna’–
“–doesn’t have a ‘G’ in it, Mom, David’s lying.”
–Nick, you’re not helping here!
