The Puzzle Left Her All Washed Out

(After dinner, my parents like to challenge each other to do puzzles. My dad has finished one and is sat doing nothing while my mum is still working on it.)

Mum: *to Dad* “You know, if you want to you could go and load the dishwasher.”

(My dad starts to move.)

Mum: “Or even if you don’t want to, you could go and load the dishwasher.”

Me: *to my dad* “I think she might want you to load the dishwasher.”

Dad: “Whatever gave you that idea?!”

Me: “I have no idea!”
