You’ve Been Out-Street-Smarted
(My grandma never likes to waste food. Back when my mom was a kid, Grandma would always give the classic “There are children starving in Africa!” argument. Then they move to the Philippines.)
Grandma: “Finish your food. There are children starving right down the street!”
Uncle: *bolts out of his seat, picks up his plate, and heads for the door*
Grandma: “Where are you going?”
Uncle: “I’m going to go give it to them!”
(She stopped using that argument after that.)
