Now that reminds me of a fun family dinner at an Italian restaurant a few years ago. Waitress asks if we would like wine before dinner. I ordered a red Zinfandel. My Dad, may he rest in peace, said he didn't know there was a red Zin. So the waitress asked him if he would like one. He said, "no, but I'll taste hers."

Now, older brother's turn. Trying to be funny, he said, "No, but I'll taste some of hers." Next, the waitress asked SIL, and keeping up the humor, she said, "No, but I'll taste some of hers".

On down the line it went, everybody at the table responding the same.

Without blinking an eye, the waitress said, "Okay, that'll be one wine and nine straws."
