Yellow Ring of Texas
She: Your jeans — you've got a white square on the pocket.
I: Oh, from my wallet? Heh. It's like a dip ring.
She: A what?
I: A dip ring.
She: What's a dip ring?
I: You know, the circle rednecks get on the rear pocket of their jeans from constantly stuffing a can of Copenhagen in there.
She: That's disgusting. I've never heard of that.
I: Don't you remember the trend in . . . uh . . . I think the mid-90s or so, when it was already sort of cool to buy used jeans at a vintage store: if you could find a pair that had a ring on the back pocket, that was like a badge of honor?
She: Uh. . . .
I: I guess that trend never made it to Canada, did it.
She: A pretty safe bet, Mr. Texan.
