Vocabulary 136 - C1

Herbert slumped onto the couch, the remote already in his grasp. Margot walked in, holding a rather tarnished copper pot.

"Herbert," she sighed, "I need your help. I'm trying to clean this old pot, but it's proving stubbornly resistant."

Herbert glanced at the pot, then back at the television. "Can't it wait, dear? This historical documentary is fascinating. It details the exile of some king or other. Quite compelling."

Margot rolled her eyes. "A king's exile is less pressing than a dirty pot that needs to be polished. Besides," she added, handing him a cleaning cloth, "it'll be good for you to do something productive for once. I'm compiling a family biography, and your contribution so far is mostly napping."

Herbert grumbled. "That's a bit of an insult, isn't it? Napping is essential for peak performance. Besides, everyone knows factory workers are all..." he paused, searching for the right word. "...are all victims of repetitive strain injury. It's a stereotype, of course, but still!"

Margot arched an eyebrow. "Oh, please. Just polish the pot. And try not to damage anything in the process."

Later, Brian walked in, saw the slightly cleaner pot, and Herbert still glued to the TV.

"What's going on?" Brian asked.

Herbert pointed vaguely at the pot. "Your mother thinks polishing pots builds character. I think it builds calluses."

Brian snickered. "Sounds like torture. At least you're not in exile."

Herbert sighed dramatically. "Don't be so sure, son. Don't be so sure."
