Lana: I did that first. I did that when I was still in an egg.
Lauren: What?
Lauren: We would say that when mom was pregnant we could see out of her mouth.
Me: Man, it's too bad the sperm never reached that egg.
Lana: What does that mean?
Me: You could have a dog brother, like Stewart Little.
Lana: Yes, but the Little's adopted Stewart, he wasn't born to them.
Me: Yes, he was.
Lana: No. They adopted him, he couldn't have been born to that family, I know he was adopted.
Me: In the movie he was adopted, but not in the books.
Lauren: Look it up.
Me: I don't need to, I know I'm right!
Lauren: Let's make a bet.
Me: What will be my prize when I win?
Lauren Five pumpkins! [candy corn]
Me: Great, then if you're right it'll be a pain, because I'll have to go buy more candy corn.
Lauren: I don't want five pumpkins!
Me: Then I don't either, I want something better.
Lauren: If Stewart was adopted then you have to vacuum my room next Saturday.
Lana: If Stewart was adopted, then Becky has to do the dishes all week!
Me: No, no way. That sucks.
Lana: No, that's the bet.
Me: Fine, it doesn't matter because I'm right.
*Several minutes are spent online, searching, before Lauren reads the following:*
Lauren:" The movie differs in the book in that Stewart was adopted and not born into the family..."
Lana: That's not even possible!
Me: It doesn't matter, because I'm right! You guys owe me.
Lana: I don't think anything was decided on.
Me: I don't think I should have to do dishes all week.
Lana: Your prize is that you get to do dishes. All week.
Me: No way, that was so smart of me, and totally knew that. I get five pumpkins at least.
Lauren: You said you didn't want five pumpkins. You get nothing.
