Rhetorical (sort of) questions

These aren’t all bad questions. Some of them aren’t even questions. And they’re not all actually rhetorical either. But we of a certain age know how to respond to each of them in an understated and mostly peaceful way. Silence can sometimes be golden. It can also be deadly when required.

1. Wake up! Bed time!

2. Are you going to eat all that?

3. What was I saying?

4. Was that on sale?

5. Is there something wrong or did you do your eyebrows again?

6. What?

7. Are you going out in that?

8. More wine?

9. You look tired

10. Happy Birthday! You don’t look a day over (current age here)!
