I’m out having dinner with my boys this evening. Naturally, being brothers, they’re constantly verbally jousting.
My younger boy (12) is talking about vegans (the ultra-vegetarians). I ask him where he heard this word, and he says, “I read it in my science book.”
Of course, his older brother (15) instantly exclaims, with a tone of exaggerated surprise, “You can read!?”
Without skipping a beat, he gets this crafty look on his face and deadpans, “Didn’t think I was so far ahead of you, eh?”
“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn’t go away”. - Phillip K. Dick
Not bad for a 12-year old.
Catrandom, who has never, in her recollection, made a brilliant retort
Thats really sharp, and at 12 no less!
I bet you have alot of fun with those two.
Excellent. Sounds like my kinda kids. My son and I do this all the time. But he’s getting ALMOST better at it than me.
I’ve learned that if someone says something unkind about me, I must live so that no one will believe it.
Now that’s funny! What a pair they must be.
Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.
'Twould be funny, I’m sure, coulds’t I read the OP…
