every year my family gathers for a reunion that typically involves overcooked barbecue awkward small talk and my aunt's Infamous potato salad that no one touches this year however things took a turn for the peculiar when Uncle Bob announced he had taken up spoon collecting we all nodded politely thinking it was just another of his worky pastimes like his short-lived attempted competitive ironing but as dinner rolled around Uncle Bob's eyes gleamed each time a server passed by with a tray of Cutlery by dessert we noticed the buffet tables looking starkly empty of spoons my cousin caught him sneaking yet another teaspoon into his pocket and that's when it clicked Uncle Bob was the reason for the missing utensils confronted he sheepishly grinned and said I guess you could say I have a stainless reputation the room erupted in laughter and from that day forward we started calling him the silverware Bandit
