which

we kept the two christians straight by calling one christian a. (who is small), and the other, christian p. (who is average sized). one day while playing heads up seven up (you know this game), christian a. and 6 other students (among whom was NOT christian p.) were at the front while the rest of the class was trying to figure out who had touched their thumbs. one student thought christian a. had chosen him and guessed, "christian?" to which he replied, "what kind of christian?" as if we were discussing ice cream flavors or music preferences. apparently, i was the only one who thought this was a strange way to respond because the guessing student, unfazed, answered, "the short kind."
