Eating the State

dont-touch-oranges

I look into the refrigerator and see a big brown paper bag and ask my mom what’s in it.
Me: What’s in the bag?
Mom: Oranges for Chinese New Year. Did I spell ‘touch’ right? T-O-U-C-H right?
Me: Yeah you spelled ‘touch’ right but you spelled oranges wrong…
Mom: (pronouncing oranges with a chinese accent) Or-an-gee. What’s the right spelling then?
Me: You spelled Oregon. That’s a place!
Mom: OH, HAHAHA. Fix it before your siblings eat all the oranges!!

  • Haru
    Thank you for saving my home state! I'm eternally grateful! XD
  • shnnntam
    Don't be too grateful, we'll be eating you on the fourteenth. Although, some oregons will be decorated around the house, but then they'll be eaten sooner or later anyways. BWAHAHAHA
  • I would have guessed oregano--the seasoning.
  • zoid
    Isn't oregano a lot smaller, though?
  • It could be a big sack of it.
