Actual conversation
Friend: So how’s B doing?
Me: Well, he got in trouble at daycare again for fighting, so we grounded him from his Wii for a week.
Friend: His WEED???
Long pause
Me: No, not weed. Wii. As in the Nintendo gaming system.
Friend: Oh.
Me: Are you kidding me? He’s SIX. He doesn’t even know what weed is yet. Hopefully we have a few more years before we have to worry about that.
