Joey (who was a really fat, obese overweight kid, simply not cutout for ever living the bohemian life) sat in that chair thing that the guy having the bar mitzvah sits in while Mark sat in the front, with his sister, Cindy (also Joey's mother), his brother-in-law Joseph, and his parents, who simple went by Mr. and Mrs. Cohen (like in the Fairly Odd Parents! ok w/e). Mark was trying not to laugh at the sight of his six friends who were standing in the very back, half asleep. All of them except Roger that is, who had found something very interesting.
"Ooh..." he murmured, entranced by the unnamed fancy object on the ornate table beside him.
"Roger!" Mimi slapped him on the arm.
"What?" As Roger turned around to face his girlfriend, he knocked the unnamed fancy object to the ground, sending it to its death. This was the part when everyone turned around to stare. Roger seemed to have no idea what was going on, since he was staring at the ceiling, while all these old ladies were glaring at him for interrupting the peace.
"Smooth dude," some jock kid in the throng of people had decided to comment.
"Now I will allow Joey's uncle Mark to speak," (Joseph decided to act as the commentator)
"I have an uncle Mark?"
"Yes sweetie, he's my brother," Cindy came to the rescue with her sweet voice.
"But you never TOLD me about him!" Joey burst into tears.
"There's a good reason for that," Mr. Cohen whispered to Mrs. Cohen who simply told Mark to 'get on with his speech'. Mark climbed up to the podium/chair thing to make his speech.
"I never knew Joey that well. In fact, I barely knew he existed! Before my mom called to invite me to this snore-fest, I thought I was going to my niece's bat mitzvah! Now, don't say anything because, Joey never called the house or-"
"Since when do we live in a house?" Once again, everyone turned to face Roger. Joey squinted at Mark and Roger, as he turned his head numerous times to face the two.
"Are you...gay?"
Mark glared daggers at Joey before saying, "As a matter of fact!... No." Roger, who had been diagnosed with a slow reaction time disease after it took him so long to realize that he loved Mimi, wasn't as quick to explain the (cough) 'misunderstanding'. After about ten seconds he screamed at the top of his voice, "Ew! No! Want proof, yo?" he grabbed Mimi, and pushed her toward the people, making her trip over her heels, "She's my GIRLfriend! G-U-R-L!".
"Woah...what a big word, dude," said the same jock kid again.
Right then, Mark ended his speech with, "But in this short time, I have learned what a generous and empathetic 'boy' he is," before stepping off the podium.
A/N: Actually, this was kind of short too...hm...review, please?
