(My mum and I have a habit of buying clothes for each other if we see them reduced in the shops, as neither of us have much time or money. I’ve just bought her something that was reduced from £22 to £5.)
Mum: “Are you sure it was only £5? You didn’t actually pay £22, did you?”
Me: “What would you do if it actually was £22?”
Mum: “Take it back for the money!”

Brother: “Wouldn’t it be great if swimming pools were waterproof?”
Me: “Uh…”
Brother: “What? No water could damage it then!”
Me: “Think about it…”
(My brother then sits still for about two minutes, whilst he thinks it over. All of a sudden his face falls.)
Brother: “Yeah, that’d be bad; wouldn’t it?”

(Some of my family will leave lights on before they leave for work, wasting electricity. I try to remind them to turn off lights. My brother is about to leave one morning, and starts shouting from the front door.)
Brother: “Sorry, I left some of the lights on! I don’t have time!”
Me: “Wait, what? But you’re still in the hou—”
(The door slams.)
Me: “…what?”
Sister: “Dude. Did he seriously just say, from inside the house, that he couldn’t take ten seconds to turn off the downstairs lights?”
