I did, though in a much kinder way. The response? "I'll be more careful about what I share in future."
I'm a horrible person.
Give me some dialogue from your day

Today my head, hands and brain didn't want to work together, I was trying to explain something to someone and my worms came out as blah blah blah... she filled in the gaps when I paused, it was rather embarrassing, brain was yelling the words but mouth couldn't say them
How did you get worms?

No! Don't!
Leave me!
I want to do it again, and I can do it by myself.
(Pause. Unaccustomed silence for five minutes as all talk stops to allow for maximum concentration)
There! I told you I could do it.
(Grins in triumph.)
Are you coming round tomorrow so I can do it on my real bike with pedals on?
(Pause)
You said when I could ride a real bike, you would get me some cycling gloves.
(Pause)
Can I have pink ones?
(Turns and heads off back across the tarmac again, perfectly balanced all the way)
Granddaughter - yesterday afternoon, for whom I bought a balance bike, for her 5th birthday last Friday. A couple of hours on it, and she's away, and my bribe of 'real cycling gloves when you can ride a bike properly' is being called in already. I'd say it was £30 wasted, because she got the hang of it so quickly, but for the fact that it gave me a reason to have her over and get her started cycling - long overdue, but she's not my child, and it's not for me to dictate!! She's already planning a long summer of excursions, and I'm pretty sure that by the end of this week, I will be out shopping for kiddie cycling gloves. Shame the 'pink stinks' message hasn't got through just yet, apparently.
More of a monologue than a dialogue, admittedly, but that's how most of her 'conversations' go. The other person's role consists mainly of listening and agreeing. I can't think who she gets that trait from.

In the local supermarket this afternoon.....
SLIGHTLY STRESSED WOMAN : (to a small boy, presumably her son, who was looking at the sweets aisle)
"Come on!"
SMALL BOY: (with great emphasis) "No!"
SLIGHTLY STRESSED WOMAN: "What are you looking for"?
SMALL BOY: (with ferocity) "I dont know"
Honestly, who'd be a mum........

I was trying to make a point about how bad I was this afternoon which is why I deliberately typed worms.

Colleague (who has Will I Am's Bang Bang as a ringtone) answers her phone after it starts to ring and says loudly to the chap from O2 on the phone "oops sorry I'm banging"!!!!
Cue hilarity in the office and the chap from O2 having to put the phone down because he couldn't stop laughing!
He didn't phone back.
Good way to get ride of unwanted callers, and entertain the office

I went out on my bike this evening and spotted BYW still knocking on local doors about 8 hours after she knocked on mine! She is certainly putting the hours in ...

While I'm looking at a strip of 6x6 negatives....
''What are those''?
''Negatives, Rachel''
''What do you do with them?''
''Print them''...
