(humor)

Soft background ambient sound playing through a bluetooth speaker while I make bacon and eggs for breakfast. I serve the little old lady at the island in the kitchen. Grab my coffee and laptop and leave to sit in the living room, finish morning comments and write.

Her: “don’t leave me here with this thing, it’s creepy”

Me: (scheming) Just press the button on top and it will go to sleep.

Her: (absently) (presses volume up button)

Me: (presses mute button on the laptop)

Her: (goes back to her breakfast and reading news on her laptop)

Me: (wait a few seconds) (press unmute on the laptop) (music restarts softly)

Her: (absently) (reaches over, looks at the speaker, finds the “off” button, but it’s really ‘volume up’ button. presses it.)

Me: (presses mute button on the laptop)

Her: (goes back to her breakfast and reading news on her laptop)

Me: (wait a few seconds) (press unmute on the laptop) (music restarts softly)

Her: (absently) (reaches over, looks at the speaker, finds the button. pauses a second) “Oh. For god’s sake. Go to hell.”

Me: (chuckling uncontrollably).

See. Retaliation cycles in everything. 😉 lol
