As Ponzi and I prepared to leave for our Hawaiian Cruise last week, we had a discussion about different “code words” and phrases that we tend to use. I bet you and your significant other know exactly what we’re talking about.

We’ve decided to start using the word “Chumby” as our code word when we want to avoid an arguement. We’re sure this will work. In the past, we’ve had to use a code word for a stinky person. We’ve been on many flights where we had to sit next to someone who just smelled so awful. I kept trying to let Chris know that the man next to me was stinky, without letting the man know I was saying something negative about him. You know… you’re trying to tell the person next to you something, without conveying to everyone else in the vicinity exactly what it is you’re trying to say? So this is what happened to me on this particular fight. We agreed if we ever had that issue again, we’d say “when are we going to play tennis?”. That stands for “someone next to me/us STINKS!”.

So… back to Chumby. Ponzi and I both have very strong personalities, so we tend to get into arguements at times. We had to pick a word we would both remember, that would hopefully make us laugh, instead of argue. The chat room came up with the word Chumby. Not only is it a funny word in and of itself… it’s also my newest fun gadget!!

I actually had this same kind of setup as a third wheel to stop a fight. Remember the “great for Channakah” ham? Whenever I got fed up with hearing them argue, I just burst in the room and yell out “Not Kosher! Better to save for Channakah!” in my best Soup Nazi (Seinfeld) voice, and that ends the debate with everyone in stitches – but the good kind.

Ok, thanks. But why are they saying it so often? And using it as a verb? Just curious…

I face awkward situations like this on a regular basis. What i do is type a message on my phone and say something like “look at this text I just got from Emma.” It tends to work really well because it allows you to transfer the information in a very discreet way.
