You probably ate something last week, so that ought to be enough for a while.

Wash my clothes for me.

 

[MissRowy]

The washing machine broke

[Daughter of His]

I don't know the combination to get in so you will need to do that yourself

would you mow my lawn?

 

[razeontherock]

^ ^ Now there's a woman who knows what an excuse is!

I would mow your lawn, but I'd need a drink from the fridge and you can't get in.

Will you fix the leaky faucet?

 

[lucypevensie]

Let's just wait for the leak to rust over. It's faster that way.

Will you let the cat in?

 

[MissRowy]

No because it will scratch me because I can't get to its food because I forgot the combination to the fridge door

Will you fluff my pillow for me?

 

[WannaWitness]

Well, I could... but the feathers might come flying out everywhere and I'll go into a big sneezing fit!

Can you play Yahtzee with me?

 

[brinny]

can you make some choc'late chip walnut cookies for me?

 

[lucypevensie]

No, because I'm trying to lose weight, and I'm pretty sure I'll eat all of them if I bake them.

Could you please put the turkey in the roaster?

 

[brinny]

i'd love to help, but it looks angry

can you get me a set of "Monk" DVD's?

 

[lucypevensie]

Nah, that's not really my favorite show.

Turn up the volume, please.

 

[Matthew-59]

The remote control stopped working and I'm sure not going to actually get up and go turn the volume up for you.

Go to Walmart and buy me a new light bulb for my desk lamp.

 

[Daughter of His]

Guess what? Here's one I just got from the living room lamp you can put in for for desk lamp.

Hey, it's dark in here in the living room, I think you'd better go to WalMart and get some light bulbs, maybe some extras huh?

 

[Kaseye330]

All the light bulbs are on back order.

Can you make me coffee in the morning?

 

[razeontherock]

Can't you just start the car and shine the headlights into the living room until the headlights burn out?

Will you siphon the gas out of the other car?
