Ten years ago I worked with a famous LSU Football Player. We happened to go to New Orleans on a business trip once to call on Tony Chachere. Tony and my coworker were big buddies and it was a pretty big deal for me and then I found out that he was just a nice guy and not impressive at all.

Anyhow, we were in the bar at the Dauphine Orleans having a drink before we headed out for Mr. B's and my coworker asked for a ------- cup for the rest of his drink - to take it with him on our two block walk to Mr. B's.

Why can't I remember the word LA people use for a To-Go cup?



Someone help me please. TIA.

What does the first paragraph have to do with your question?

Long story for a question about a go cup.

Nice guys aren't impressive? What does that mean?

It's called a setup I guess. I was thinking about my friend (who died) and realized I can't remember what he called a to-go cup.

An old guy problem I seem to be having more and more frequently lately.

It means that I know nice people and impressive people. Not all of the impressive people I have met were nice.

I assume this was Tony Jr..
Tony Sr. passed nearly 20 Years ago.
Tony Sr. was a super nice guy.

After your third stroke, you just call them by the proper term, brainfarts.

By unimpressive, you mean he was a simpleton? Or that he was a Guy Fieri type of personality who is all hype but without near the food knowledge his reputation suggests?

No strokes yet. Tons of other stuff.

Not impressed at all with Guy Fieri.

No, he was not a simpleton.

He was just a nice guy.

Could have been 20 years ago. I'm not sure Mr. B's was there 20 years back.
