When a Coworker says, "You have so much PTO! Are you having kids soon?"

"HEH!" you can bellow in response, like a flock of geese being chased out of a parking lot by a Safeway driving student. 

When your mom's friend says, "Wow! You are 28? I had kids at 22. You should probably get started soon!"

"HEH," you can answer kindly, and then fill your mouth with that seven layer dip she brought that made the conversation almost worth it.
