is it me or are men not good at reading between the lines?

my mom went out with her Bible study tonight, so it was just me and my dad. she told us to have leftover meatloaf, but there was enough for the 3 of us, so we decided to save it for another night and have my dad run get mcdonald's.
dad: what do you want?
me: a cheeseburger is fine, and fries. [we never order things that are not on the dollar menu]
dad: not mcnuggets?
me: well, i prefer them, but it's up to you. they cost twice as much.
dad: how much do they cost?
me: like $2.15 or something.
dad: hm. do you want a mighty kids meal?
me: they don't have mcnugget mighty kids meals anymore. they realized that people like me were ordering them because they were cheaper than buying everything individually.
dad: oh. they don't have them. but a cheeseburger is fine?
me: yes.
he goes to get the food.
dad [with a big smile cuz he's the best dad in the world]: i hate to spoil your supper, but i thought you might like it spoiled. [he hands me a hot fudge sundae.]
me [thinking 'ugh. i don't really like them. especially not with a meal. and i had been really hoping to eat the nummy ice cream we have here, but now i'm wasting all the calories on this.']: oh, thank you!
dad: i thought you would like it.
me: but of course!
i finish my sundae and open the bag to grab my meal: fries...and a cheeseburger.
