Psssst....over here. :)
In Downingtown, PA, there is a Dicks next to a BJs in a strip mall.
There is a smaller Dick’s near me, and once, while out of time at a different Dick’s, I audibly exclaimed, “What a big Dick’s”. I guess Cabellas avoids that kind of thing.
Seattle has several Dicks (drive ins). The food is excellent. They make their french fries from fresh potatos ! Milkshakes are made from real ice cream !
It was a favorite among my crazier buddies to go in and ask for “a big dick”.
In Knoxville, our Dick’s is on Peters Road.
Years ago when the Internet was new, a friend of mine wanted to find the nearest Dick’s sporting goods store to him. So he googled “dicks.” He didn’t make that mistake twice.
I was at a church “young married couple” gathering about 15 years ago and we were playing pictionary. The guy drawing the picture is a friend of mine and his name is Dick. He is also an amateur artist. One thing that stands out in all of his paintings is that all the faces and heads on people have a sort of amateurish clear facial profile look.
So anyway, he’s trying to draw a baby and it’s basically got one of his stanard styled adult looking heads on it. So without thinking, I loudly said, “Typical Dick head!”.
As the last word left my lips I realized what I had said. For some odd reason the room fell into a quiet hush, followed by me saying, “I meant...but...its the way Dick draws...I mean...I didn’t mean”, etc.
To this day some of the women that were in the room think I meant it as it sounded. I honestly didn’t.
I also honestly thought it was hysterical, though, which may be why they think I did it on purpose. :)
