You Can Never Tell By Gemma Doyle You never can tell if parents notice or are listening Kid: I'm going to become a terrorist and blow up stuff! Parents: mmmhmm Kid: When I grow up I'll cause pain to all! Parent: ok Kid: Hey I'm going to get some cookies Parent: no you're not no cookies before dinner See what I mean? You never can tell if your boyfriend's notices or is paying attention Girl: *in a dress* Does this look alright? Guy: *doesn't even look up* yes you look beautiful Girl: *wearing boyfriend's shoes* do these look ok on me? Guy: yeah they- wait a minute those are mine! Again see what I mean? -these examples were adapted from "Calvin and Hobbes" and "PrankvsPrank"
