**Mama Zappa** and I were at a potluck supper. One of the attendees brought a lot of wine, and **Mama Zappa** and I indulged. Not too much, but just enough that when a fellow grad student offered to drive us to our apartment we accepted, rather than walk across campus. Stagger would have been more like it. Back in our apartment, I sobered up enough to start on the dishes. **Mama Zappa** was zoned out in the living room area. While doing the dishes it ocurred to me what a good influence my bride was on me. I was drinking less, and therefore my alcohol tolerance had plummeted. I thought I would tell her this wonderful fact. I said “Honey, since I’ve know you I’ve become a cheap drunk!” … 😕 … :eek: … :smack: … “Um, let me rephrase that!” Scary thing is, she knew ```auto exactly ``` what I meant, and was not offended. Until my correction. Then she laughed, and we laughed and laughed. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/randomly-hilarious-moments/358832)._
