At the same time we each pulled a popular iconic dog into the conversation:
Her: "like the Target dog!"
Me: "like Spuds MacKenzie!" said with the conviction of this being common knowledge.
She looked at me like I had a 3rd eye and spoke a foreign language.
Her: "Who?"

The more I explained Spuds...
"you know, The Original Party Animal, Bud Light, from the 80's."
...the more I knew I was in trouble!
Your feels the need to watch "Remember the 80's" on VH-1 Realtor,
