Awkward Question

So incidentally, I still (unfortunately) live with my mother and siblings. My mom and my younger sister (aged 14) often get into fights about the most mundane things. My sister likes to instigate things seemingly for the most asinine reasons. I usually try to ignore these by listening to music or doing something productive, or at the very best, leaving when I can.

While I tried to ignore their senseless arguing yesterday, they just HAD to ask me a question. A question that they had to make sure I answered and answered truthfully. They apparently could not move on with their debate until a vital piece of information only I could give was given. What was that question?

"Hey! Do you watch porn!?"
"Wait...what?"
"Yeah, do you watch porn?"
"....Sometimes?"
"SEE! HE DOES!"
"There's a difference! He's 19 and you're 14!"

After that, I tuned everything out. I'm just glad my mom didn't ask what kind of porn I watch. I'm sure it would've been quite unsatisfactory and made things even more weird. But wait! Things get better.

My friend came over to hang out and chill. I'm still on the computer trying to tune everything out but my friend...he is not so fortunate. My friend gets dragged into this.

"CHRIS! Do you watch porn?"
[To me] "Did...did your mom really just ask what I think she asked?"
"Don't answer. You don't have to answer"
"CHRIS!!! DO YOU WATCH PORN!?"
"...."
"DO. YOU. WATCH. PORN?!"
"He's [referring to me] telling me not to answer"
"Why?! Why shouldn't you answer!?"
"Cause it's weird mom!"
"Why?!"

I tossed him my Mp3 player and helped him drown it out.
