MOM: Are you hungry?
JAY: Not really.
MOM: You're not hungry?
JAY: Not really.
MOM: How can you not want to eat?
JAY: MY GOD.

Never mind the fact that I have not used a washcloth since- well, since I learned to wash myself. I bring this up almost every time.

MOM: Is this my coffee?
JAY: No, that's mine.
MOM: Where is my coffee?
JAY: I dumped it out.
MOM: I was enjoying that coffee! Why did you dump it out?
JAY: ... you left the house.
MOM: That doesn't matter! I was enjoying my coffee!
JAY: Yeah, but then you left the house. You drove away.
MOM: Oh! Yeah, I see it now. You got coffee all over my dish towel!
