Student (pointedly checking watch): Are you really just having lunch now?

Friend: Yes. I wasn’t hungry at 12:30.

Student: Not hungry!

Friend: Well, no. I ate breakfast this morning.

Student: Breakfast! Nine hours ago you mean.

Friend (defensively): I’m still going to eat dinner when I get home.

Student: That’s because that’s dinner! This was suppose to have been lunch.

*Silence for a moment*

Friend (sheepishly): You know it only sounds so bad because you’re saying it in that tone.
