A tiny bit about my boyfriend...

My boyfriend related an incident that occurred when he was a child and this is the story...

He told his dad that he wanted to call his friend. His dad said that it was alright for him to do so. All he had to do was to get his friend's house number.

Guess what my boyfriend (whom I thought was a very smart man) did...???

He went down to his friend's house and took down the number on the door (which was 17). He went back home and dialled 17 from his phone...!!!

How silly can you get...???


I am glad this occurred decades back...I can't imagine dating someone this silly...
