Lost in translation #1

IN A MINUTE:
Example:
               Parent: Junior, will you let the dog out?
               Child: Yes mother, in a minute.

 Parent's Definition: In sixty seconds my child will get up and let the dog out.

Child's Definition: I'm going to sit here until I get yelled at and threatened with punishment. Why do I have to do everything around here? I just let the dog out a month ago, it can't possibly have to go to the bathroom again.
