Mom: You’re going to college this year. Eat up, and reach a bodyweight of 5o kilograms, or you may not have enough flesh on you to survive the first semester!

Daughter: Mom, am I a goat that you are fattening me up for slaughter?

Mom: No, you’re a camel. I want to build your hump so that you can survive in the desert, and come back home alive to be fed up again.

Daughter: Utter silence.
