That's… tempting. She will yell at me for sure, though. Plus, if I say she does the same thing, she will say it's not the same (she told me it's not the same, so I know she's aware of her double standard).

Is it tempting because it'd be amusing, or because it's likely to change her mind?

You know her better than me, but in my experience antagonizing people rarely works. I don't know what would, unfortunately.

Because it might change her mind. But the odds are not good. It would also not be amusing at all. I think I won't attempt it.
