I, harshly and most unfairly, point out that she has two already sharpened pencils (Of the Pooh Bear variety) in her pencil box; so I refuse to sharpen another pencil until these are used a bit. Despite protestations such as "But I don't LIKE those pencils," I refuse to cave and sharpen the new one.
