My favourite is the, "You know you can tell me" and there is no way out of it so you are honest and get the, "See, I told you that you could tell me." Then at some later, totally unrelated moment perhaps months later, BAM, and she pulls that nugget out.
Even if you don't get get in trouble at the time, you WILL get in trouble.
Here honey, just take this hand grenade and pull the pin at some future moment of your choosing.
