Sunday night, Amy and I went to dinner, along with Miss Britt, Mister Britt, and the Brittlings, to the lovely home of Faiqa and her husband Tariq (and their daughter).
As you can imagine, dining at the household of a Pakistani woman married to an Indian man, it was a very typical meal. Rather than try to describe it, because I know I wouldn’t do it justice, I thought I’d just illustrate a snapshot of the evening. Click to embiggen:

OMG Genie was there? I bet he was hilarious.
Nice use of the ogival arch, though.

Good to see they operate a ‘naked guests’ policy. It is the same here.

Where’s the table levitation with your junk? It ain’t a party until there’s table levitation.

Britt really needs to start wearing a shirt when she’s invited to someone’s home for a meal…

I thought you were about to insult Native Americans, in which case I would have to scalp you while wearing buckskin and doing a rain dance. But this is fine.

hahahahahaha. You’re such a shit. I *should* have served you monkey brains instead of going out of my WAY to cook food that would suit your pansy ass palate.

Was the monkey already dead or did you have to beat it over the head with mallets?

Their daughter appears to be antisocial and/or shunned from the table…was she scared off by the britlings?

Miss Britt’s table manners are awesome. We always say Woo Hoo Fuck Yeah at dinner.

WHOA. My daughter is NOT antisocial!
She was washing dishes in the kitchen because we’re big on child labor in our household. Don’t worry, she gets $0.03 for every four dishes she washes *and* dries.

Shouldn’t the hostess be wearing a sari? I don’t see any turbans in this picture either!

I am saddened by the lack of elephants.

And Faiqa. :heartbeat:

Did you use the flying carpet to fly there, or is it just for levitation during meals?
