Me: “You will look nice in a tie at graduation and every man should own at least one tie.”
Tommy: “Why? I’m never going to wear it again.”
Me: “What about funerals? You’ll need it for funerals.”
Tommy: “I’m not going to any more funerals.”
Me: “What about my funeral?”
Tommy: “I don’t want to go to that one either.”
Me: “Then, who will carry my casket?”
Amy: bursting with excitement “Me! I’ll carry it!”
Uncle Stinky is quite fond of ties.
That would carry a lot more weight with Noah than with Tommy.
