John: I've just been advised on FB to throw a little New Kids on the Block into my setlist.
Me: Oh! Good call.
John: Definitely. I'm not sure whether I want their "Hanging Tough" phase or their "Step By Step" phase, though.
Me: Oh, "Hanging Tough." Because then you can totally do the dance! And pretend you, as well, are a New Kid!
John: Wowsers. That goes so beyond where I was reaching with this joke.
Me: It's what you get for getting "Hanging Tough" in my HEAD. You deserve much worse.
John: Thankfully, I am beyond your means of true vengeance.
Me: Vengeance is a dish best served cold.
John: I'm going to point out that vengeance is NOT in The Joy of Cooking. So wherever you're getting that recipe is dubious indeed.
Me: It's a family recipe from way back in Scotland.
John: is it served in a sheep's stomach? I hear that vengeance in a stomach is big over there. In fact, that explains all of their cuisine.
