When I lived in Korea, I was always assumed to be American, I would then feign assuming that they were Japanese, which pissed 'em off no end.

Well, if Adam had been better at "pointing out silly non-issues", maybe he wouldn't have bitten into the apple that had the worm in it - and we wouldn't be where we are today. So there!

OK, Jackanory time aside ...

It's amazing how one can perform tasks more efficiently with someone standing there bleating in your ear non-stop

If that story was in real life, she probably told him he'd either get out of doing the dishes if he ate it, or he'd not get any.

One of the two.

Eve was just joking, she thought it would just end in a bit of a ribbing.

You've heard of Steve Jobs' flaw called "reality distortion" haven't you - well, if his criticizing and finding fault with his co-workers worked to perfect the iPhone, iPad, etc., just think what our employing that sort of philosophy could do for you! And we women are experts at the constructive end of criticism as well as finding and getting flaws fixed.
