Pollo

So it's late and before I got home tonight we went to a Mexican restaurant that is open late at night. I got a chicken dish, I believe it's called "Pollo Senora." I said my order to the waitress and pronounced it "Polo" a person I met only today chucked at me by my pronunciation of the word.

I know I was wrong how I said it but I had a couple drinks in me so I was just pronouncing how I would say in American English. Now that I'm home thinking about it, I'm really annoyed about that whole ordeal. He made me feel as if I was stupid and uncultured. I took spanish in high school I know that double L makes a Y sound and it should have sounded like "Po-yo." Hell, I even went to Mexico a few years back so I just had a small misstep in saying the word chicken in Spanish.

What made me a little more upset is that I only met this guy tonight and he feels he had to take it upon himself to make me look like an idiot. I could have shot back a smart ass remark and let it be known how he'll approach me next time but I decided to back down as he so happens to me one of my good friend's friend so I stepped aside.
