When my sister and I were little, she would delight in catching our mother asleep in her recliner, whereupon she'd come up with outrageous things to ask her starting with "hey mom, can we ____" (fill in the blank with a description of whatever mischief she wanted to get into at the moment) ending with "don't answer if you mean yes". Mom, being a very deep sleeper, wouldn't answer. She outgrew this childish game. It is a pity that some businesses haven't.
