#wasthatnecessary

Me, as pleasantly as possible: Student A, if you're so tired you should probably try to eat some breakfast before you go play because it can help your brain wake up.

Student A, crying immediately: Noooo, I'm not hungry, I don't want food!!

Me, taking his hand: Let's just go see what it is and decide if there is one thing you can eat.

*******walking to cafeteria, crying the whole way******

Student A, still crying: I just don't need food, I'm sad.

Me, to lunch lady: Excuse me, Student A is just wondering what is for breakfast today because he could use some food in his belly.

Lunch lady: Waffles today.

Me, overly and dramatically excited: See, Student A?! It's waffles!

Student A, immediately stops crying: GASP! I love waffles!

Here is my first edition of "Was that necessary?"

Lady at the zoo changing your baby's diaper on the seat of a foot massage machine when the bathroom was 20 steps away - Was that necessary??  No.  What you did proved your utter laziness. 

Coworker who liked to inform me that we do indeed have root beer in bottles while I'm refilling a customer's soda.  REFILLING a soda.  Was that necessary??  No.  What you said was irrelevant.
