Mom discovers voice typing
Mom has discovered voice typing. Now her phone writes down everything she says, and not only to her son.
- ThemHi sweetie comma did you eat question mark
- YouHi Mom. Yes I ate
- Why are you typing the punctuation as words
- ThemI’m not typing. I talk into the microphone and it writes for me
- So convenient exclamation mark
- YouGot it
- ThemTom don’t touch the meatballs they are for Sam’s lunch
- YouMom, who is that for
- ThemNot you it’s for your father
- Tom put the meatball down
- Tom I can see you
- pause 1.2 s
- YouMom, the microphone is still on
- ThemOh no how do I turn it off
- Tom how do I turn it off
- Tom says press the button
- Which button Tom they are all buttons
- pause 1.5 s
- YouSounds like Dad already finished the meatball
- ThemHow do you know
- YouMom. The microphone
- ThemThere I turned it off
- Tom he knows everything
- pause 1.2 s

Why it is funny
The joke is not that Mom gets confused but that the reader sees more than she does: every line meant for Dad lands in her son’s chat. The sign-off with the spoken "period" brings back the very first gag and closes the story on its own.
How to make it yours
Swap Tom and the meatballs for whatever happens in your own kitchen: what matters is that the lines meant for Dad are short and arrive in a burst. Keep the sign-off as it is, the joke does not close without it.
Every chat here is fiction. Any resemblance to real people is coincidental.
