    (while eating dinner)

    RJ: (after carefully studying his plate for a minute, spears a mushroom on his fork and holds it up) Is this a safe one?

    Mom: Yes. It’s definitely safe.

    RJ: Well… How do you know?

    Mom: Because we bought it at the shops and they only sell edible mushrooms there.

    RJ: What kind is it?

    Mom: It’s just a normal button mushroom. Eat it!

    RJ: (quiet pause) Here Mum, just have a little bite. Tell me what you think.

    Mom: No, RJ. I will not be your personal food tester. Five year olds aren’t at risk of assassination.

    RJ: (turns to Dad) Dad?

    Dad: (sighing) If I must…

    (Dad puts the mushroom into his mouth, chews for a moment, then dramatically falls to the floor, clutching throat, moaning, gurgling and convulsing, then becomes still. RJ cheers and starts jumping on his back… until Dad gives in and returns to the table.)

    Mom: RJ, sit down and EAT!

    Mom: (turning to Dad) Nice example, honey.

    Dad: I know, I know. Totally inappropriate… Parenting FAIL, but dramatic overacting WIN!

    Mushrooms on the ground floor...

    (during a family lunch with everyone sitting at the dinner table)

    Poppa: So does anyone want to get up and fetch me a glass of water?

    (no volunteers)

    Poppa: (gets up and walks into the kitchen) I guess I’ll get it myself.

    LR: (with mock dismay) How come Poppa has to do all of the work around here?
