Organism
A good few years ago my little brother had a summer job at the local pub. One night he came home and announced that one of the more popular drinks was the cocktail called an 'orgasm'. Cue slightly embarrassed sniggers all round.

Even younger sister (aged about 10) was listening and pretty quickly clued into the fact that the word was mildly inappropriate. And says to us: "You don't think I know what that word means, but I do".

One quick and failed attempt to change the subject later: "You think because I'm young I don't know things, but I do. I know what that word means."

Deep breath. Bluff about to be called.

"OK, then, what does it mean?"

"Well, you have your brain, and your tummy, and your lungs...and they're all 'organisms'"

Cue sudden, relieved outburst along the lines of "Yes, yes, you're so clever that's exactly what it means, sorry if we doubted you" etc.

Smug look from sister. Relieved look from parents. Smirk from brother. Everyone wins.

Bless.
