A story for Augie and Carey.

I tell my DH a lot of what goes on here and he used one of your expressions this past weekend.

He was craving flat rice noodles from the local Chinese joint. So he goes up there at 12:00 noon when they open only to find it to be closed. No lights on, door locked, etc. He’s terribly disappointed and decides to go directly next door to Subway. About 5 minutes later, he has his sub and comes out only to find the Chinese place is open for business, lights on, doors open, people behind the counter. When he came home, he told me the story and when he finished, he turned away and muttered, "damn sneaky chinese." He felt they were purposely withholding Chinese noodles from him and tricked him into getting a sub instead. *shakes head* Poor DH.
