Verbatim from the 13-year-old stepdaughter:
Her: I'm very stubborn. Dad: Uh... not really, honey. Her: Yeah, I guess not. It's pretty easy for people to talk me into stuff. |

Yeah, we read a lot to them and my favorite book is the Third Edition of Roget's Thesaurus, so i guess it rubs off. The new Thesauruses have been dumbed down, defeating the whole purpose of them.

SonofV from the recliner in the front room:
"Uh oh. I have to fart and I don't know which way to lean." I love sons.

Thor (9): I'm breaking sticks with my hands as I walk along because this is something I can do to keep them busy without annoying other people"
Thor; [more of the same] Me: It's Ok, that's good, whatever you need to deal with your ADHD... Thor: I do not have ADHD. Oh hi kitty (to a tailless cat spooked by us walking by) Beest, Hebe and I took a good 5 minutes to stop laughing.

As I walked by I heard the mm: "...and this is the family, and here is their pet; a loathsome beast..."

Me: Please stop making that noise.
Minifob: Why do I need to stop making that noise? Me: Because it hurts my ears. Minifob: Actually, it's because it's annoying. Me: Well okay, I guess it's that too. Minifob: That's not a very nice thing to say, you know. |
