First off, shout out to Gpizzif for the title of this post. After first meeting Tanner, I was very skeptical. He walked into my house wearing a gatsby hat, kicking pants, and fila toe shoes. The only redeeming clothing he was wearing was the shoes because I wear the same ones for running. After deciding not to judge a book by its cover, he then proceeded to tell me about his marriage. Leaning about his marriage made me laugh harder than almost any story I've ever heard. We instantly became friends after the story and a 36 hour car ride together.
Ten things I've learned about Tanner in the one week that I've known him:
1) Can turn any statement into a pun
2) Water does not fuel him only Kool-aid, rockstar, soda, or powerade
3) Swears by Sonic
4) Has the worst text message alert ever
5) Texts more than Jed and I combined (that's a feat)
6) Is sexually frustrated
7) Updates facebook like its his job
8) Loves hats
9) Is an Aspiring Comedian
10) Is a pseudo Georgia Tech Alumni
What everything boils down to for Tanner in the 8 days that I've known him is that he is the King of Puns. From now on Tanner will be referred to as King of Puns or KP. He literally turns nearly any statement into a pun. 9/10 times these puns are an utter failure. However, they are super entertaining and watching Jed's reaction to the puns are priceless. Due to the King of Puns puns, he has swiftly become the butt of all jokes. Jed constantly makes fun of him for being a homosexual and I throw in my two cents every once in a while. Contrary to popular belief, the King of Puns is actually not gay even though we are still not 100% certain. Let me give you an example of the many conversations between Jed and KP went like this:
(As we watch ESPN, Marie Sharapova comes on the TV for winning the semifinals in the Australian open)
Jed: I would do Marie Sherapova
KP: So would I
Jed: Yea, if she was a dude
KP: WOW, this never gets old for you
This is a typical joke between Jed and KP, it happens approximately 2-5 times per hour. Nonetheless, the King of Puns has added a very different dynamic to our trip. As I mentioned in the past, Jed and KP know each other through business. I have known for many years that Jed was very into marketing and that's how he and tanner became friends. What I am now realizing is that Jed, KP and all their business friends also dabble in other areas such as finance, accounting, consulting, etc. So clearly I am left behind often when they get knee deep into their business jargon. Lets just say that they are a little too businessy for my taste.
This has been my experience with the King of Puns thus far. I am certain that there is more to come and I look forward to it.
