I always joked with my dad that Grand was just short for Grandma

I got that the other day. First the guy says Woah! Like you'd expect from a small child and asks if I went mudding. He then proceeds to ask what kind of CAR I drive... After I reply its a Jeep Cherokee, he says I thought wranglers were better for that. I almost jumped in the drive through window to choke a *****.
