After waking early this morning, I decided to make myself some porridge, so downstairs I go. I make the porridge, fill the pan withy some boiling water to stop it sticking and I sit down to eat it.

When I finished, up I get, I take my bowl and empty glass of smoothie to the kitchen top where they will await the dishwasher. On the kitchen surface now is a cup, a glass, an empty bottle from my milk, and a bowl.

My dad happens to go downstairs at this point and calls me down...

"look at this" he says, pointing zealously at my "mess" Fair enough, I left the empty milk bottle on the surface, OK I acquiesce. I left a pan lid out...fair enough...but then he points to the two chopping boards I placed my glass and the bottle on...and says..."and why have you left these out" I deny it, then I get called a liar, stupid...because its obviously me...even if I only made porridge...

So...

the point of this post is...just a light-hearted look at how the hell does one argue with this type of complete denial...?

Help...please.
