[OC] Interrupting the Answer

[u/RishtalesComic]

This happens far too often with my kids. The answer to the question is right there, often repeated, and I'll even give the answer, but the repeated question gets in the way every time. It's like they don't actually want to know. Maybe they just want to hear themselves talk. I feel like I'm being pranked.

My brother and I loved playing “is he the bad guy?” game when the character did something obviously evil to annoy our parents. I’m in my late 30s now and we still do this so…we definitely didn’t grow out of it!

I like to ask my mom "oh no, do you think he's ok?" When someone gets a very clearly fatal injury, like being blowing up or chopped in half. I'm in my thirties and every time she looks at me like she wants to strangle me, I've been doing it since I was like 10.

Oh we did that too! “Is he dead? Did he die?” My dad fell for it every time. My mom didn’t play games lol

My closest experience was playing Pirates of Carribbean event in Sea of Thieves with friends and 3 of us yelling "Dead men tell no tales" each time the narrator said it (it was a lot) and one person taking it as us not paying attention/not enjoying ourselves. Like, bitch. We were actively laughing and paying attention to the narration specifically to say it again.
