OT doctors appointment

[wingnut]

Boudreaux, an 80-year-old South Louisiana Cajun, goes to

the doctor for his

Every year check-up.



The doctor is amazed at what good shape he is in and

asks, "How do you stay

In such great physical condition, Boudreaux?"



"I stay in de swamp and I hunt and fish every day", said

the old Cajun.

"Dat's why I'm in such good shape. I'm up well before

daylight and out

Hunting or fishing all day. I have a beer for breakfast

and at lunch and wid

My supper. And, I have a shot of hooch before bed time.

And, I say my

Prayers every night. And all is well wid me."



Well", says the doctor, "I'm sure the prayers help, but

there's got to be

More to it. How old was your father when he died?"



"Who said Pop is dead?"



The doctor is amazed. "You mean you are 80 years old and

your father is

Still alive? How old he is?"



"Pop be 100 next month," replied Boudreaux. "In fact, he

hunted with me dis

Mornin, and den we went to a beer joint for a while and

had a few beers and

Dat's' why he's still alive. He is a tough Cajun man and

he hunts and fishes

Everyday, too."



"Well, the doctor says, that's great! But, I'm sure

there's more to it than

That. How about your father's father? How old was he

when he died?"



"Who said my Paw Paw's dead?"



Stunned, the doctor asks, "You mean you are 80 years

old, your father is 100

And your grandfather is still living? Incredible! How

old he is?"



"We tink 'bout 118." says the old Cajun. He likes his

beer, too, but he

Won't touch the hard stuff."



The doctor is getting frustrated at this point, "So, I

guess your

Grandfather went hunting and fishing with you and your

father this morning,

Too?"



"No, Paw Paw couldn't go dis time. He's gettin' married

today."



At this point the doctor is close to losing it. "Getting

married! Why would

A 118-year-old man want to get married?"



Boudreaux looked down at the floor and mumbled "Who said

he wanted to?"

ROTFL???

Remember, I'm from rural Arkansas. We're 20 years behind. I suspect though, you might have to PM me to tell me what that means?

Del,

I think that's text-speak for Rolling on the Floor Laughing. The complete phrase is ROTFLMAO. ... Laughng MY @$$ Off.

Thanks Miles. Some of the abbreviated/text-speak I can figure out by context of sentence. I'll bet there's a text-speak dictionary out there I could learn a lot

There are far too many textspeakisms, and far too many web sites trying to list them all. One here: http://www.netlingo.com/
