At the breakfast table, for no reason Amy strikes up this conversation:
Amy: Did people smoke lots of weed when you were in school?
Me: Some people did, yeah.
Amy: Oh....because people smoke weed at school still.
Me: I'd be surprised if they didn't.
Amy: It's just weird, you know?
Me: What is? Smoking weed?
Amy: No, that people smoked weed when you were in school, too. That means it was around when you were in school.
*NOTE* My sister and I are 4 years apart in age.
Me: ...you thought it just appeared in the last year or so?
Amy: Well, no, but I mean it wasn't around back when mom was alive.
Simultaneously, my mom (who is alive and was listening in from the other room) and I burst out laughing.
Amy: What? WHAT?! What's so funny? I don't get it! Why are you laughing?!
Me (through laughter): Why do you think we're laughing?
Amy: Because weed is older than mom or something? I don't know....OHH! Weed was around when mom was in school? Then if weed was around back then, that means mom was a hardcore druggie, right?
