Bringing Up A Sore Subject

(I was spending time with my neighbour after she’d had a long day with the kids. Her 13-year-old son was nearby at this moment. Note that her freezer lives under the house.)

Friend: *excited* “After a day like today I thought I’d treat myself. I brought up a couple of white chocolate ice creams this afternoon.”

Son: “Well, you also brought up four children. Why don’t you get excited about that anymore?”
