it's all about her

I just had D come and clean up what he'd left piled around my computer: a bowl of salad plus fork from lunchtime (much salad left); an empty bowl of Moose Tracks ice cream plus spoon (empty), and a small bag of gummy worms (empty).

D said, "Hey! Who ate the rest of my gummy worms?"

I told him the last time I checked, there was one worm left, and I did not eat it.

He stalked to the living room and confronted his sister.

"Did you eat my gummy worm?"

"Yes."

"Did you ASK?"

"No."

"Did you KNOW BETTER?"

"There was only one left! I thought it was meant for me, so I reckoned I could just eat it."

a random gummy worm left abandoned on a counter in a publc place is fair game... If he wanted his lone gummy worm later the package should have been put it in his room.

Maybe so, Richard, but does the same principle apply to Lamborghinis or Porsches?
