Tonight as Onion Ring was slowly and painstakingly filling a cup to the brim with ice and water, then sitting down to carefully and daintily sip little bitty sips (another in a long line of mundane, random tasks that were suddenly extremely important to him) I said, "Onion Ring, quit doing things to avoid doing your homework."

Onion Ring replied, "Yes, I am very skilled in that art."
