English question

[druffine]

My colleague has a calender in his room and everyday there is a new thing to learn about English as a language on.

Today's hint is:

Kaspar was really worried about the joint his elderly neighbour had invited him to on Sunday. Might he have misunderstood something?

The calender explains that: no, that old Lady does not want to smoke some pot with him but she's going to make him a nice piece of meat to eat.

Question is, does anybody talk like that? Do you invite someone over to a joint in a non-drug-y way?

Thanks for the help.

No. Nobody actually talks like that. Heh. What a weird sentence. And 'joint' as a piece of meat is fairly old-fashioned, as well. What his elderly neighbor might actually have said would be 'Please come over for Sunday dinner, we're having my special home-made pot roast!' or 'Why don't you join us for supper on Sunday, Kaspar? We're going to barbeque.'
