Orange And Blue

After I got home from the speech tournament this evening, the following conversation ensued.

CAST OF CHARACTERS
K = Kevin
S = me
GF = Kevin's girlfriend

K: Dad, whoa, what are you wearing?

S: The suit that I wore to the tournament today.

(Kevin examines the tie closely)

K: Wow - that's - yeah - lots of orange and blue.

S: Yes, a pinstripe suit with a checkered shirt and a swirlish tie is pretty busy. A man at the tournament yanked my tie today and said, "Great tie, Sam, it's so you." And I thought, "You barely know me, kinda like I barely know you, except for the fact that you're an alcoholic."

K: (in a sarcastic tone, to GF, as they are walking away from me): My dad is so nice.

GF: (in a sincere tone, to Kevin, as they keep walking away): I think he's nice.
