L:  Can we get a kitty or a puppy one day?

S:  Sure.

L:  I’ll even let you name it.  Just don’t take advantage of that privilege.

S:  Shitty the Shih Tzu!

L:  I do not say that word, and we’re not getting a shih tzu!

S:  Hehe.

L:  I was thinking more along the lines of Mortimer or Gulliver or Hadley or something.

S:  Oh, so what you meant by “I’ll let you name it” was “I’ll let you pick from the pre-selected names I have approved.”

L:  Yeah, was that not clear?
