Imagine The Foot Chase

(This exchange happens while Mum is doing the ironing and commenting on one particular item of clothing.)

Mum: “These black socks are the bane of my life!”

Dad: “That’s a Batman villain, isn’t it?”

Mum: “What? Black Sock?”

Me: “No, Bane. Although Black Sock would be a funny villain…”

Dad: “He’d wear a sock with eyeholes in over his head.”

Me: *mimes waving a sock* “And now, Batman, I shall kill you with my stench…”

Dad: “He’d be the only villain Batman would have to face downwind!”
