    DAUGHTER: "Mum?"

    MOTHER: "Don't call me Mum"

    DAUGHTER: "Mam, why do some people say 'kil-OMM-eter' instead of KILO-metre?"

    MOTHER: "Because they're moronic gobshites who confuse it with barometer, thermometer, odometer and other words with meter as the root. They've no difficulty with millimetres, centimetres and metres. You'd imagine that people employed in the media should know better, whatever about the child in the street" .

    DAUGHTER: "Thanks, Mam"
