Child (watching parent pay bills): Whatcha doin'?

Parent: Paying bills.

Child: Why?

Parent: So we have lights, power, water...

Child: I'm never going to pay bills.

Parent: When you're grown up, you will.

Child (imperiously): No — The...Children's...Muthah...Will...Doit.

Parent: (Simultaneously shoots and kicks self for being so slow on the uptake for online bill pay.)
