(I am working in the emergency department. I am tending to an elderly woman who is accompanied by her middle-aged daughter. The woman’s daughter has just sent a text.)
Daughter: “Well, I hope he can read what I typed, because I can’t see anything without my glasses.”
Mother: “You do know that you have a pair of glasses on your head, don’t you?”
(A look of embarrassment crosses the woman’s face, and her mother bursts out laughing hysterically. I smile and turn to the mother.)
Me: “It’s nice when someone else does that for a change, isn’t it?”
(The mother has a big smile on her face.)
