The only way this could've been funnier is if she'd said Uncle Ben

Scene: N and I are talking about my (hopeful) move to San Diego:

N: And you're gonna have to start paying back your student loans soon. Big Ben's gonna come calling.
Me: Big Ben?
N: Yeah.
Confused pause
Me: You mean the clock tower in London?
N: You know, the guy that points. Pointing motion. With the hat.
Me: The one that says, "I want YOU!"?
N: Yeah, him.
Me: That's Uncle Sam.
