How Big is Your Wiener?
“How big is your wiener?” I actually said this to the girl at the food booth at Costco today. Let me explain …
My boss let me in on this game that he plays with his son a while back. The object is to get the other person to say or do something embarrassing in a public place. It’s like a dare.
For example, last time we were in Costco (Costco is a large membership only warehouse store that sells just about everything in bulk, for those of you not from around here) I dared him to ask the clerk to gift wrap the 6 cases of soda cans that we were buying for the youth picnic. He did it without batting an eye. On another occasion I dared a co-worker to tell the waiter at the Chinese restaurant that he had forgotten to bring our chips and salsa, he chickened out. The game goes back and forth like that and there is usually a bet attached.
Today at Costco I told my boss after completing his purchase of an umbrella, that I was going to make him ask if the umbrella worked in the snow as well as in the rain since it didn’t say anything about snow on the package. I chose not to use the dare because I wanted to think of something more embarrassing.
Costco has a food booth that sells Polish Dogs and Pizza slices and being near lunch time my boss says, “I’ll buy you lunch if you ask the girl how big her wieners are.” Heh … free lunch. No problem.
So I’m looking for dares that push the envelope without putting us at risk for arrest. If you have any ideas, or can tell me about a dare you once suffered or dealt out just leave me a comment below.
By the way, thanks for being patient with me during the long break from blogging. It has been a busy summer!

How did she reply?
I’ll have to go away and think now. Good to see you back again!
