mom: It doesn't mean you automatically look exactly like him like a twin; just that you take after that side
me: Yes, buuut since at the time of these comments, I held a bigger grudge towards dad, it was slightly insulting
mom: Say, if a super model was told she looked like her dad, it doesn't mean she's manly
me: Mmm hmmm.. still
mom: Plus, really, dad's side has those big pretty eyes and nice features.. I don't see why you'd rather take after me
me: Well, it would be nicer if I had bigger bones
mom: Did you just say you wanted bigger boobs? that is a shock coming from you ...!!! I mean.. you won't get those from me!!!
me: *tries to swallow tea, but ends up spitting most of it back in cup* (yes I tried to be polite and not spit it across the already messed up comforter) Mmmmmph! no! I said bigger... bones! bones!
mom: Hmm.. what are you trying to say?!
me: Well, I'd like to look less breakable ..less anorexic. the leg situation.
mom: I do not think I look big! *examines arm* people usually tell me how small I am in class and ...and you are always saying I'm big and sturdy!
me: No, I'm not sayin' you're ...no. since I said I wanted to look that way, wouldn't it be a compliment? you seem together
mom: Well, you have weird taste
It is quite fun to have these discussions that always lead to me being insulting when I'm trying to be complimentary. ah well. hee! the best was the big boobs misunderstanding, but I thought I'd type up the rest for the hell of it :D

Completely unrelated.. me and Will were having a discussion (he signed off in the midst of it; darn him) and it led to massaging though really I'm not sure he caught the rest of my discussion (I basically said I like having my back done; no feet - I hate my feet being squeezed; I reflexively kick at people who do).. just got me thinkin'...
