J's dad

Still at Friday's party. Held in honor of Dante's 30th birthday, part of the party involved a quiz show, in which we had to recall various hilarious episodes of Dante's life, like, "Who caught the stereo that Dante threw out of the second-story window?" and, "In what city did Dante get kicked in the head at a strip club?"

Anyways, after the party was mostly over and almost everyone had left, Dante got a call from one of the guests asking him to look for a lost cell phone. Dante said sure, and the friend proceeded to call his lost phone. Dante found it.

"The call log says that he's calling from a number called 'Jihad,'" he said. "I'm going to call this Jihad back, whoever it is."

"Hey Jihad, what's up! Jihad! What? Oh. Okay, sorry. [Hangs up.] That guy had no idea what I was talking about."

Of course we immediately started giggling, because we had warned him that it seemed a bit weird to be calling a guy named Jihad. It took Dante a minute to realize that the phone book did in fact list "J's dad," and not "Jihad." "Oh my god, I just called Jonah's dad and called him Jihad," Dante exclaimed.

We were rolling on the floor by then. "Ten years from now, this will be on the Dante's 40th Birthday quiz."
