Herbert sighed, staring at the overflowing bin. "This eternal battle with household waste... it never ends," he grumbled.

Margot, ever the pragmatist, walked in. "It's called taking out the trash, Herbert. And maybe if you didn't aspire to create so much of it, we wouldn't have this problem."

Herbert chuckled. "Easy for you to say, you're not the one creatively repurposing leftover donut boxes."

Margot rolled her eyes. "Creatively? You dub them 'art,' Herbert. They're still donut boxes."

Later, Brian entered, skateboard in hand. "Hey, Mom, is Oakhaven Elementary a prestigious school?" he asked.

Margot raised an eyebrow. "Why do you ask?"

"Just wondering," Brian replied, attempting a nonchalant shrug. "Because if it is, I might have to start trying harder."

Herbert, now comfortably settled in his armchair, piped up. "Don't listen to him, Margot. He's just being cynical. He probably wants to use that as an excuse to get a new video game if he gets good grades."

Brian stared at his dad, surprised. "You figured me out!"

Margot shook her head, smiling. "You both are hopeless."
