Dad: New series on 12/21/12 "Countdown to Apocalypse" on channel 116. Check it out.
Me: not interested.
Dad: too bad, you might learn something.
Me: I will watch if you promise to give me $1000 on 12/22/2012 when we are still here. Deal? What have you got to lose?

Me: calm down and watch the Pitt basketball game. The world isn't going to end next month.
Dad: you need to quit being so closed minded.
Me: you need to quit watching fox news and being so gullible.
