Speaking of desserts, today my marriage counselor was trying to make a point of how, if I'm having conflicting feelings, like anger at someone and guilt about that anger, I can choose which one to feel. So he was like, "OK, what do you want to eat right now?" I said, "Um...ice cream." He said, "What other thing would you want to eat right now?" I was like, "Um, a cookie?" So he said, "Well, you can pick one or the other, and either choice is OK. I was like, "Couldn't I just eat both?". And MC was like, "OK, well, I guess that would be the Chipwich exception!" And H said he was going to write a book on psychology and title it that.
I'm particularly good at messing up analogies like that... Because I don't necessarily give the expected answer.
