when your mom yells at you from across the house to come do something and you reply back but she can´t hear you - by: Vatsal Parekh

We’ve all been here.


So your just chilling in your room minding your own business thinking that you’re finally able to do what you want. But then you hear it: “come do the dishes.” Oh boy, don’t you love chores!


When you hear this you take a few seconds to contemplate what exactly you just heard but then you understand:


You have to get ur butt of your bed, go downstairs, walk in the kitchen, and put all the dirty dishes in the dishwasher, and close it. All this work has just been asked of you.


You yell back, “NOOOO, i’ll do it later mom.” Then you wait for her to reply back. You’re still waiting. Still waiting. Okay what the heck happened. Either she didn’t hear you or she just doesn’t want to respond. She’s like a robot that only delivers messages and never receives any. Oh wait, what if she is a robot and never told you? Anyways that’s besides the point.


Your eyes start to fill up with immense joy. Congratulations, you just avoided doing a 5 minute chore which apparently feels like 260 hours. Now you forget about what just happened and continue enjoying your life.





AWESOME!
