Vocabulary 99 - C1

Herbert shuffled into the living room, clutching the TV remote like a defensive lineman guarding a quarterback. Margot was attempting to merge two overflowing laundry baskets into one.

"Herbert, darling," Margot sighed, not looking up. "Could you at least try to fold some of this? The sheer volume is starting to intimidate me."

Herbert grumbled, "I'm conserving my energy. Besides, I was just about to watch a documentary about donuts. It's a matter of intellectual curiosity, really."

Margot stopped, placing her hands on her hips. "Donuts are not intellectual! They're delicious, sugary temptations that threaten the very fabric of our humanity."

"Oh, come on, Margot," Herbert retorted, puffing out his chest slightly. "I could boast that I can identify any donut by smell alone! It's a gift! A talent!"

Brian walked in, hearing the familiar bickering. "Can you identify the smell of desperation, Dad? Because that's what you're emitting right now."

Herbert frowned. "Smart aleck. Go do your homework."

Brian shrugged. "Homework's already done. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go practice my skateboarding. Unlike some people, I contribute to society."

Margot just shook her head and resumed wrestling with the laundry, muttering, "He gets that from you, you know."
