I was painting my 5-year-old's nails and they needed a second base coat
5 called the second coat a "double crust"
Double crust sounds much better than "second base coat"

Kid: Dad, did you ever notice there aren't any reptiles in Zootopia?
Me: Yeah, what do you think the predators eat?
Kid: Huh?
Me: Peaceful coexistence between all mammals, right?
Kid: Yeah
Me: What does the fox eat?
Kid: Oh. That's messed up...
Me: Utopias usually are, if you look closely

However, if you believe they do, let's take a closer look at what that claim means.
You'd rather a child die a painful death than have a life that is inconvenient to you.
Anti-vaxxers aren't just dumb/ignorant.
They are also cruel.
It's crazy that there is nothing to stop you from sending exercise equipment or a vacuum cleaner to another man's wife for Valentine's Day

Wife-Too many spiders in here
Me-Yeah, but they eat bugs
Wife-Ok, but I need a plan for when you will take care of it
Me-I vacuum them every five weeks
Wife-That seems arbitrary
Me-On the contrary, I give them written notice two weeks prior
Wife-Spiders can't read
Me-Um... Charlotte's Web?

I asked that he read for 30 minutes before playing computer games

My four year old called a bra "nipple pouches" and I have to admit that is way better than "over the shoulder boulder holders"

Me: Alright, first day of the semester. Time to focus and get my money's worth!
Also Me: Let's outline a new novel at 4 AM and start writing it today!
Me: Because it was extra to call outside your region, people would wait until Sunday to make long distance calls when rates were cheaper. Sometimes so many people called, entire networks of landlines would shut down. A robot voice would say "all circuits are busy"
Teenager: What's a landline?
People who say "I don't want to be a statistic" don't understand statistics...
It's just dumb way to say "I make good decisions"
