Okay, firstly let me set the scene:

My brother ALWAYS makes a fuss and hovers around me when I offer to make him a cup of coffee because he doesn't think I make it right. He insists that if you put the milk in after the water it doesn't taste as nice as when you put the milk in before the water. He gets quite aggressive and frustrated and I have to admit to winding him up about it quite often :p

Tonight I offered him a coffee. "Yeah okay, thanks" he said and followed me into the kitchen. I went to put the water in and I hear from over my shoulder, "What about the milk?!" and I say, "Oh, it doesn't matter, it doesn't taste any different!"

Oh you should have seen the fuss.

So I decided to do an experiment. He went and sat down in the living room with Dad and I made up 2 cups of coffee, each with EXACTLY the same measurements. The brown mug had the milk in first, the blue mug had the water in first. I bring them in, tell him to sip them, and tell me which had the milk in first.

He tastes both, and very sincerely and triumphantly lifts up the blue mug and says "This one."

To which I burst out laughing and exclaim! "No! Pahahahaha!" and Dad joins in :D :nuts: He hasn't spoken to me all evening :p

Here's laugh number 2:

Sumotori Dreams

It's a 'sumo' game, in which you control 1 of 2 robots in walking forward and pushing. The robots try to sort out their gravity balance by changing their footing, but are just basically 2 drunk robots :D

Basically there's a games convention, every year, where a bunch of coders and programmers join forces to create a game that is under 96kb (yes, that's right, 0.096mb) and then they are rated and the winner is given a prize.
This is the result of one of those. It's fantastic 5 minute fun, and all under the size of a word document :) Can't go wrong :) (if it doesn't work, google 'Sumotori 1.02' - the patched, updated version)

If someone comes into my house and doesn't like the way I do things the tough.
He would have followed me into our kitchen just the once and that would have been so he could walk straight out the back door.
 
Ooooh, I can just see how your brother is now devising a plan to get back at you!


Fast forward 10 years into the future. You're visiting your brother, and he offers you a counter challenge to what you did to him 10 years ago. This time, he asks you to do the testing while he prepares the coffee. Only this time one of the mugs will have an added ingredient in it, (fill in your most horrid option here :puke:).

I bet he will be the last man laughing in this.

You've only had round 1 from a 2 round match, sorry!


Yes, I have to admit, it was funny; but roll-on December 2019 :p
 
I've done a similar thing with my MiL - who thinks she knows wine. She buys expensive wine because it's expensive because she thinks that must make it better. I buy bog standard boxed wine from France. So I took an old 'expensive' bottle and filled in from the box - and she thought it was 'wonderful'. Couldn't tell the bloody difference! LOL

My brother did the same to my mum. He had some nice cognac and told mum thats what he had given her. She said it was lovely. It was actually some old cheap brandy.:lol:
