Popcorn

I was in the middle of a raid last night, and we had a 5 minute break to get snacks, go bio, etc, so I went to make popcorn. When I got upstairs, my dad was also in the kitchen, and he asked me in the sort of voice that made me think he wasn't really serious if he could have some popcorn, too. I said "Noooo, it's mine!" and I was thinking the same thing. It was MY popcorn, and the thought never entered my head to make extra. After it was done, and I added the butter, he came by and was honestly disappointed that I hadn't made him any! So I let him have a handful... Note to self, always double-check with people if they're being serious or not, even when they're using a tone of voice that makes it sound like they're kidding.

I can't decide what's more confusing, people talking like they're kidding when they're serious, or talking like they're serious when they're kidding.
