My mother could never understand that kids in Africa were going to starve whether I ate my peas or not.
Classic dinner memory of mine..
... My sister (Who is now a barking moonbat) is older than I am. In 1988, sitting at the table my mother said the same thing when she didn’t finish her dinner.
My sister, who had just seen the new comedian named Sam Kinnison, quoted his famous scream : “THEN GET OUTTA THE F!!!!IN DESERT OH OH OHHHH” and she screamed it. My parents did not get the joke, because they had heard of such a man as Sam Kinnison.
The beating was that much more funnier for me to watch.
