Another one. I was taking grad classes in IT about a dozen years ago. The topic was sorting techniques, one of which is "perk up". I had to explain a coffee percolator to the class.

I tell my kids that with medicine...

"You'll get used to it."

   "No I won't."

"You'd be surprised what terrible foods or inedible things you'll eventually try."
