My brother and I got into a heated argument today about going to the movies. I told him he was not allowed to see the new Harry Potter or Twilight movies without me. Here is a summary of our conversation:
Him: I saw the last two Twilight movies without you.
Me: No you didn't. You saw the 2nd one with me.
Him: No I didn't. I saw it in San Francisco.
Me: No you didn't. You saw it with me at the smaller Alderwood theater.
Him: No, I didn't. I distinctly remember watching it in San Francisco by myself.
Me: You aren't right.
Him: Yes I am. I can remember the exact theater I sat in and returning home to tell my roommates about the ending. I thought it was excellent. "Bella, will you marry me?"
Me: It's impossible. You need to go home and check the release date. You weren't even in San Francisco when the movie was released.
Him: I don't know why you think you know these things. I think I know what theater I sat in and who I talked to.
Me: Because it is impossible. Before living here, you lived __________. Go home and check. Besides that, you never know if what you are saying actually happened or if you dreamed it.
At this point, silence filled the car. He was stewing and I was sure of myself. When we got home, he checked the release date...what do you know? November of 2009. And where was genius, confident brother at this time? Out here with me. Who did he see the movie with? Me. Who was right? Me. To mark the occasion, I recorded it on my phone. You see, when it comes to movies my brother is never wrong. Except today. And by the way, he just called me a gloater.
