A Father And Son discussion

I found that passage Funny:

¨Make sure the top is closed you don't want that bag breaking open and spilling garbage all over the floor. That would just be a nightmare to clean up!¨

I dragged one of the bags across the floor toward the door. ¨Son, don't drag that bag! You'll tear the bottom and we'll have garbage all over the place. I just warned you about that.¨

¨You said check the tops,¨ I said. ¨Yes but it should go without saying that you can't drag a garbage across the floor.¨

He was wrong. I'd seen the commercials for Hefty garbage bags on TV. ¨They don't break.¨
