Who Would Have Thought
I went for my first classes two days ago. In between classes, there was a violent thunderstorm of Wuthering Heights proportions, so to pass the time I called my brother.
Me: Hi Ben. Bla bla bla.
Ben: There's a storm here.
Me: Here too.
Ben: Did you know that you can get electrocuted if you're on the phone in a thunderstorm?
Me: I have never heard such rubbish in my life. Also, I'm indoors.
Ben (ominously): It doesn't matter! You're not safe anywhere! It happens every year. Mum wants to talk to you.
Mum: Hi sweetie. Bla bla bl -- (suddenly cut off)
Jeng jeng jeng
I call the house phone.
Me: Did Mum get struck by lightning?
Ben: No. BUT that does not mean she might not have been.
(Apparently, my brother is right!)
