Farmville Has A Lot To Answer For

(My younger sister is 12, and we’re both in the back seat of our car, driving through rural Pennsylvania. My sister is playing a farming simulation game on a hand-held system.)

Me: “Look! Cows!”

Sister: “Huh? Did you hear the cows in my game?”

(I point out the window.)

Me: “There are cows!”

Sister: “I know. I just got the cow!”

Me: “Look out the window!”

Sister: “There’s no window in my game!”

Me: “You’re in a car. LOOK OUT THE WINDOW!”

Sister: “What?”

(She looks up and out the window.)

Sister: “Oh, my gosh, COWS!”
