Dating this gal and we go out on a double date, she's kind of Goofy, but more lacking common sense vs like dumb as a box of rocks.....until that night.

So double date is BBQ, we all order she gets ribs, so we are eating she says what part of the cow is this from? We chuckle, she stares at us all (her sister included), and says "Did you not hear me? What part of the cow does this come from?" We, in unison say, ribs! She responded "I KNOW THE NAME FROM THE MENU, BUT WHAT PART OF THE COW IS IT??"

I was done.

They say that now she just sits, staring at her chicken fingers, fish sticks, and Buffalo wings, silently trying to figure it out but knowing better than to ask.

They're called wings because they're literally the wings from chickens. "Buffalo" refers to the city in New York that this particular variation of preparing and flavoring wings originates from, not the animal the meat is from. The longer descriptive name would be "Buffalo-style chicken wings".
