70th birthday

Dr. H's Daughter: "Your balloons are running out of air. Look."

Me: "Oh, hey. Happy 70th."

Dr. H: "What?!"

Me: "You look good for a 70 year old man."

Dr. H: "I'm not 70!"

DHD: "Say thank you."

DH: "For what?"

DHD: "She complimented you."

DH: "She did? How did she compliment me?"

DHD: "She said you looked good for a 70 year old man."

DH: "But I'm NOT 70!"

DHD: "That's not the point. Say thank you."

DH: "I'm not saying thank you! The balloons say 50!"

DHD: "Be polite."

DH: "I'm not 70 years old!"

ME: "But you look good for not being 70."

DH: "....!"

50 is apparently a difficult year for men.
