Hangover Day?

(8)

gd: I presume you are talking about the Ten Commandments?
me: Right! How did you know!?
gd: Very funny.
me: Harris claims that over the centuries the punishments for sins against the Ten Commandments have been considerably diluted, to the point that nowadays those commandments are pretty much moot.
gd: Moot?
me: Irrelevant.
gd: Prove your hypothesis!
me: Sure you're ready for this...?
gd: Do it or hang up!
me: What is the punishment for calling you an idiot?
gd: A slap on the wrist?
me: Death: Leviticus 24:16.
gd: My, my...
me: And what is the punishment for working on the Sabbath?
gd: Sabbath?
me: Saturday.
gd: Hangover day?
