We all remember the famous - "Do your DOWNstairs chore" incident where we thought that Mom wasn't going to say "downstairs". Well we were discussing how elevated emotion and emphasis on a certain word oft time causes us to think that she might be using another word. Well after discussing this Mom was telling us about the frustrations of raising four boys, and when they all start saying they are hungry you just want to tell them "Why don't you go and FIX your own dinner??!!" All of us who were listening braced ourselves and held our breath until the word fix was finished. Once we confirmed it was really just the word fix we all breathed a sigh of relief. All I have to say is Case and Point!
1 notes:
Of course don't forget the 5 min of straight laughter that ensued after Mom was done saying that phrase.
