YCookie Monster!
Gmail conversation between me and Zhen in the middle of designing a magazine cover (her) and sourcing out Israeli innovative technologies (me):
me: i'm having an oreo

Zhenhua: my mummy made me take them

Zhenhua: today

me: how did your mum get them?
Zhenhua: dbs
she stole them from there
me: huh? i thought they're from subway
(Loooong pause from Zhen, who's probably alternately knocking her head against something very hard and laughing at my sheer stupidity.)
Zhenhua: ARGH
you're not reading properly
I explained just now
(and the conversation continues)
In the middle of the conversation, Dan calls me up. The first thing I say to him (in hushed tones because the office is so quiet and I'm a lowly intern so I have to look like I'm doing work or else) is, hysterically, "Are you near a subway? Get cookies! Subway's giving out free cookies!"
Naturally, he asks me, "Are you all right?"
But it's cookies, and it's subway cookies, and they're for free :( Maybe my mummy got me some too.
