    Kinda sucks, doesn’t it?

    Still, I keep picturing your dad, basking in sweat, running a pho shop in Ho Chi Minh in the summertime or the like, wiping his brow with chicken-stock soaked dish towels.

      Yes, he was absolutely covered in sweat. He was a severe hyper sweater. He was washing the sweat off of his face with the cleaning cloth. That he had just used to wipe pink slimy chicken fluid.
