Ask A Silly Question, Get A Silly Answer

Mom is talking to herself out in the kitchen. I'm in the den working on the computer. She turns towards me seeking assistance with something.

Mom: Can you help me with these things?

I get up and head out into the other room.

Me: Help you with what things?

Mom: Those things.

She points to our electric stove. The heating coils have been unplugged and removed, as well as the metal collector pans underneath them.

Me: Why did you remove them in the first place?

Mom: Because I'm an idiot.
