“Hey, what does the word ‘impulsive’ mean to you?”

“‘Selfish and irresponsible.’”

“Okay.  What about the phrase ‘I want this?’  What do you think that means?”

“Huh, I think…I think ‘I want this’ also means ‘I deserve this.’”

“Great, and who are you again?”

“Oh, me?  I’m everyone your age, apparently.”

“Great, thanks for talking to me.”

“My pleasure.  By which I mean, the most important thing in the world.”
