Evil Sister Has A Game Plan
(My mum and I are Christmas shopping for a specific game type for my 25-year-old brother. We are with my friend who works at the store. I’m not being particularly helpful.)
Mum: “What about this one? It has swords.”
Me: “Nah, get him the [popular girls doll game] one.”
Friend: “This one?” *points to shoot-em-up type game*
Mum: “Could work.”
Me: “Nope. I think you should get him the [really awful kids game] one.”
Mum: “What about sports?”
Me: “I still think the Barbie one.”
Friend’s Coworker: *to me* “You really must not like this guy.”
(My mum and friend start laughing.)
Me: “He’s my brother. He’s lucky I’m being this nice.”
Friend’s Coworker: “I see. What about this [truly awful game] then?”
Me: “Oh! I didn’t see that one.”
Mum: *laughing* “Leave! Now! Out!”
Me: “But, I’m only trying to help! Really!”
