When I would read, my mom would always say “turn on a light…” I always hated that, because it implies I was too stupid to see what I was reading. One day, I walked in a saw my son reading and said “Why don’t you turn on the… you know what? Forget I said anything!”
i had that night in a hotel a few years ago. I yelled at the students running the floors between rooms at 2am on the business floor… i told them to stop it and pick a room.
