Sru and I go to K-mart to buy vegetable oil.
After an hour or so, we reach our car with vegetable oil and a cart of other(not really on our ' things we need list').
Me: I can't believe we spent $xyz for vegetable oil.
Sru: Yes. We did and I am broke.
Me: :( Shall we return some of the stuff since we are broke.
Sru: (gives me 'the look' as usual)
10 seconds of silence later....
Me: I am serious.
Sru: Yes! That's a good idea. And I shall return 'you' too, to K-mart.
Me: Oh! No. That would make you a billionaire.
Sru: What??
Me: If you return me to K-mart that's the amount they would pay you back. Since I am a few billions $ worth. (with that proud and confident and I am always right look )
Sru: HUH. I am just scared my bank account would go into negative balance if I return you to them.
Me: (shut's the mouth and tries to be silent for a while so as to change the topic.)
Sru: hehahaha.
Me: (gives the I am not listening hence I don't care look.)

Tall Dwarfs vs. Short Giants
Me: Sru, do you think we are short people?
Sru: hmmm...we are short. But there are people shorter than us.
Me: Just answer in one word... Yes or No.
Sru: YES.
Me: Well, I think we are just really tall dwarfs, living in a world mostly occupied by really short giants. :~)
Sru: :-|

Not a Dumbo
Me: Can I ask you something? (in a tone that equals puppy eyes)
Sru: (nods a yes...which South East Asians only can understand)
Me: You think I am quiet a dumbo sometimes, right?
Sru: (nods a yes...this time quite vigorously)
Me: hmmm...I was thinking all night yesterday and it occurred to me that...Most smart people in this world are dumb. People like Einstein and all great scientists...they are absent minded and sort of dumb some times. So, it just means, I am very smart and that's the reason you find me dumb sometimes.
Sru: (shakes her head in disbelief)
Me: :) Do you think I am right?
Sru: (nods a no...again this is something which South East Asians only can understand)
