King of the Stupids

I must stress, I did NOT give poor Riyo this nickname and I never call him this.  But.. as I mentioned, his issue is he hates men.  When I go to my friends house to stay with her, Riyo barks at her husband ever time he moves.  It frustrates her husband to no end, because he tried to make friends with him, but it just never worked.  So, in retaliation, he calls Riyo “king of the stupids.”  Their two young sons find that name entertaining and often use it as well.  Poor Riyo.  He’s not stupid at all.  I have worked on this problem and it is better.  He even gets along decently with the boys.  But not enough to lose the nickname yet.  Maybe someday.  Stay tuned….
