So, for those of you who don't have the genuine pleasure to know Babe, he is a sweetie, but...
He is English/American impaired. I only say American too, because some of our culture tends to slip by him, no matter how assimilated he becomes. And then he has the English-As-A-Second-Language difficulties in putting the puzzle piece words of the English Language together.
Me: Babe I am nervous about getting bikes because it is expensive and what if I don't follow through and ride it.
Babe: Well, then lets not buy them, I am tired of wasting money on you trying to get in shape
Me: Well, maybe we can make an agreement
Babe: And while we are talking about it, I am tired of buying you fat people clothes, just because you gained weight. I am not doing it anymore
Me: Um... okay.
