A conversation I had with my mother earlier today that was just too special to keep to myself.

Mom: I'll be taking my vacation in May sometime.
Me: Mine, too. I'll be spending a weekend in Florida for [particular event].
Mom: Is that around the Everglades?
Me: no, but [so-and-so] went there once. I didn't go.
Mom: Good. I didn't need a phone call saying you were eaten by a shark.
Me: .........It's alligators that are in the Everglades. Not sharks.
Mom: Oh.
Me: You know, I'm going to draw a shark in a motorboat, on its way to visit his alligator friend in the marshes. Or even better, maybe the alligators just started wearing those fake shark fin pool toys just to mess with you.
Mom: Maybe they did!
Me: How did they get them? How could they even convey that they'd want to make such a purchase, let alone get in the store?
Mom: They ordered them off of the internet!
Me: How did they power their computer?
Mom: They used a hydroelectric generator!
Me: Ah... *speechless*
Mom: See? I answered all the questions! You can't even say anything! *beams*

And I couldn't.

Keep in mind this was all between laughs. This was better than the time she claimed pigs go 'moooooooooo'.
