He said really why?
And I said that the allowance that he gave me wasn't enough in these modern times, because I was amazingly sophisticated in my speech when I was young.
He told me that I might want to cut down my spending and stop pissing it away on cigarettes and comic books because in the 70's everyone smoked and because it was unfair for me to foist my stupidity in terms of spending on the people that were giving me the money. So request denied.
Then he sent me out to buy him a pack of smokes because in the 70's preteens and teens could buy cigarettes without a note.
