Me: What is this whole big packet in your backpack?
Wm: Oh, we have started a unit on spelling. We got divided into 3 groups. I am in the best group.
Me: How do you know it's the best group?
Wm: Because I saw the words the other groups are spelling.
Me: And your words are harder?
Wm: Uh, YEAH. Group 1 is spelling "bed." We are spelling "insincere."
Me: Well, maybe Group 2 is the "best" group!
Wm: That's the group most of the class is in. It's the regular group.
Me: You just have this all figured out, eh?
Wm: Yep.
Me: Did you ever consider that no group is the "best" group and all the groups are just doing different, but equally good, things?
Wm: No. I'm in the best group. I'm an awesome speller.
Me: FINE. Spell annihilate!
Wm: A-N-N-I-H-I-L-A-T-E
Me: NO!
Wm: YES.
Me: A-N-N-H-wait.
Wm: You can't spell annihilate.
Me: You didn't get the spelling thing from me. I think I would be in the "bed" group.
Wm: Obviously.
BURN.
