  • My daughter (1st grade) has been having issues at recess.  She's really tender hearted and takes offense to just about everything.  When she tells me what's wrong to me it just sounds like playground

  • I coach college baseball and my 3 year old son has begun to catch on to things that go on at the ball field. He sees me talk to players when things go wrong, etc. Last night I was throwing him passes

Daughter: 'How did the guy who invented the calendar know what day it was?'

Good question.  I pondered that before myself.

"Okay...I came up with this calendar.  It starts....RIGHT NOW!"

"But sir, according to the oracles, and the solstice, and all that other shit, it's the middle of June.  So we just missed the first half of the very first year EVER?  That doesn't seem right."

We have a lazy susan on our dining table (how asian of us).

My son spun it real quick and a glass container flew off shattering on the floor. He said he wanted to see what would happen if he did that. *dumbass*

 

He already felt bad so I didn't give him any more grief. I did however take the opportunity to teach him about centrifugal forces inertia. I may talk about about rotational velocity during dinner tonight.

 

fixed for the physics nerds among us. 

 

also, show him this video:

"Deep thoughts by Jill Handey."

He's getting close to pre-puberty. The other day, he apparently told Mrs. Doom that, "I think my dingaling is increasing in mass."

I use that same line to let the missus know it’s time for some Saturday night friskiness.

Yes, that's for fixing it. It's been 30+ years since my last physics class.

Been teaching my kid about inertia, friction and rotational velocity. Probably getting it all wrong, but at least I'm keeping him away from a screen 1 stupid lesson at a time.

2 of my nephews were reading some book and one sentence said, "a geyser shoots water.." One nephew read it as "a geezer(old man)" and the older one says, "the word is geyser." The younger then proceeds to tell all of us "Don't you know what a geezer geyser is? It when an old man pees out of his boner."

My 10 YO boy is slim but is SOLID muscle.

I’m 51 YO and don’t remember the last time I worked out.

So anyway, he’s being doing BJJ the past 1+ year. I watch him at the gym so now I think I know king fu. We wrestled in the living room yesterday, and that boy is freakin’ strong.

As he got me in side control, he whispered in my ear “dad, you need to start working out because I’ll dominate you once I get to 90 pounds”

(he’s only 80 now)

  • 2 weeks later...

Background: We’re close with 2 families who both have 9 YO girls. One is plain looking but is funny and a blast to be around. The other is really pretty but had some serious mom-daughter anger issues.

Me to my 10 YO boy: If humanity depended on it, who would you pick to be your girlfriend?

10 YO: I pick suicide.

Me: I mean it when I say humanity depended on it. Civilization would cease to exist if you didn’t make a choice.

10 YO: Civilization’s had a good run. We don’t need it to keep going.
