My dad is awesome

A.: Do we have chick peas?
Dad: Like, in a can?
A.: Sure.
Dad: I'll go look in the basement.
A.: I can go.
Dad: Oh, no--you wouldn't get through. Mom's Occupying Wall Street down there. She's practically built barricades.
A.: [laughs hysterically]
Mom: What's so funny?
Dad: Seriously. It's not passable.
A.: That's hilarious. [Laughs again.]
Mom: Wow, what an awful laugh you have. It's old-ladyish.
