When I was a freshman in HS, a friend and I were playing Betrayal at Krondor late one night, just talking randomly about the stupid things that nerdy freshman talk about. At some point he just turns to me with this weird look on his face and says, completely ernest, "I just realized... I'm literally a red-headed step-child."

There was this long pause and then we both just started laughing.

File under: shit that doesn't happen any more because nobody plays single-player games side-by-side, late at night any longer.
