Kinks. Never heard of them.

Funny true story. My sister-in-law worked as a restaurant hostess in her NH college days back in the 80s.
One Friday, a group of lads strolled in looking for a table
She greeted them and asked how many in their party. "Six" one said.

She told them it would be about a 20 minute wait to get two free tables to make one, as it was rather busy that afternoon.

"20 minutes?!" retorted the man. "That's ridiculous. Don't you know who we are!?"

She replied, "No. Who are you?"

The man said, "We're the Kinks baby!"

"Oh." She said. Then honestly confused, she said, "What's a Kink?"
