Granddad: I don't want a cheap-bong clock!

Granddad: You might like to read this before you go off hitchhiking in Europe.

Granddad: Yes.

Granddad: [Hollering from the other room] I always have to take the opposite point of view with you!
Me: In what way?
Granddad: You argue with everything I say, so I have to take the opposite view. Because you always argue. Over everything.
Me: [Pause while I think of how to handle this] You know, you're absolutely right.
Granddad: No you're not!
