Vietnamese Basketball
Exchange between my brother and I. We are each other's enablers for bad jokes...
Bro: Hey Jenny, what do you call two Vietnamese guys playing basketball?
Me: I don't know, what?
Bro: "Hoanh on Hoanh".

Bro: EXACTLY. See, you're catching on.
Me: Does this mean I "Nguyen" something?
