Seabloke dropped by today with Pilot (by the way, Pilot is really a pilot. A very dashing and mysterious man....My lucky future sister-in-law....) and lunch.
I went about setting up the table rather absent-mindedly, as my mind was on my charts, as always.
Finally when we were all seated and ready to dig in, Pilot said this AGAIN (the very first thing he said when I answered the door, but I was too distracted to pay any attention...):
"Thomas Edison did NOT invent the electric light bulb."
Sea: So who did?
Me: Frankenstein
Sea:????????
Pilot: An employee of Edison did. He was not given any credit for it.
Me: Ya, and his name is Frankenstein.
Sea: Seriously guys, so Thomas Edison wasn't the one who invented the electric light bulb?
Me: No, it was Frankenstein. The poor guy was struck by lightning in the process, turned green, and wasn't given any credit.
Pilot: By the way, do you guys know that the 108 Heroes of Liang Shan were actually terrorists?
Sea & Me: ???????
Me: What has that got to do with Frankenstein?
Pilot: I can't believe that people buy the story of 108 GOOD men. There's only 1 man that I'd call good and he's dead: Gandhi.
Sea: And Nelson Mandela
Me: But he's not dead yet.
Sea: ?????!!!!!
Sea: So, Pilot, from where did you find out that Thomas Edison was not the inventor of the light bulb?
Pilot: People talk. His employees have children and grandchildren who started talking.
Me: Well, so the man who was supposed to invent the telephone didn't actually invent the telephone, and now the man who was supposed to invent the light bulb didn't actually invent the light bulb...hmmm....so who was the poor fella who got struck by lightning??
Pilot: Wait, let me finish the story of the 108 terrorists.
Sea:???????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sea insisted that I put this on my blog. I had no idea why, until she text me a while ago.
Sea: I still cannot stop reeling over Frankenstein.
Me: Why leh? He did invent the lightbulb mah.....No meh??
Sea: Yah Frankenstein did...
Me: Then why you laugh?
Sea: Hahahahahahahaha!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAHHHHHAAAAAHA!!!!!!
Sea again: I don't know why people find their siblings boring and rather go in search of friends. I cannot find anyone more hilarious than my siblings!
Ok, Sea, happy now? You just can't write your own diary can you? You better have this saved and backed up....
Oh, and I love you very,very,very much too!
But I'm not chipping in for your dinning table.
I'm preparing my own gift. Yes, I suffer from low self-esteem and just have to make a mark. LOL!!!!
