In our family, consisting of myself as the oldest, my brother as the middle child, and my sister as the youngest, our birthdays fall within a month of each other. At some point, my mother befriended this particular individual and their family, resulting in them frequently visiting. However, both my brother and I never really liked them due to their behavior, while my sister seemed to be held in high regard and became their favorite. Personally, I didn't mind this as it meant dealing with them less.

On the occasion of my sister's birthday, they came over to celebrate and brought along a trunk full of gifts for her. Of course, she was overjoyed with everything she received. After showcasing all the presents for my sister, they surprisingly announced that they also had gifts for my brother and I. They handed us a bag, and upon looking inside, we discovered Arby's frisbees inside. Apparently, on their way to my sister's party, they had eaten at Arby's, and the frisbees came as a bonus with their meals.

Now whenever I see them I think about the fucken frisbee!!!
