It was one of those moments I wished I had a faster brain and a quicker wit so I could have capitalized on an opportunity to say something brilliantly funny. Alas I am just a simpleton.
Not too long ago, I busted a spoke on by bike’s front wheel and had to have it replaced. When another spoke broke on the same wheel during my annual century ride (a hundred miles (162 kms) in under six hours, thank you very much!), my mechanic and I decided it would be best to replace all the spokes and rebuild the front wheel. (Yes, I actually have a bicycle mechanic.) A few days later he called to say my bike would not be ready on time. Since my old spokes were no longer available, he was going to have to replace them with a set of thicker ones. “There is only one problem,” he added. “I don’t have the right nipples.” (Apparently, nipple is what they call the screw thingy they attach the spokes to. Who knew?). He would have to order them.
In the history of spoken language, that may have been the very first time one man uttered the phrase ‘I don’t have the right nipples,’ to another man. I didn’t even know there was such a thing as a BAD nipple.
