Gotta Love Those Europeans

and how can you not? i was sitting in a recliner at a client's last night when his oh so portuguese father says "so, did you lose some weight or what?" now if this was virtually anyone else on the planet, i would have been offended and probably embarassed, but there is something about european people that they are just so blunt and not intentionally cruel or mean that you actually find yourself liking them for saying something so ballsy and personal. and without even thinking you say, "well i suppose i did."
