Kids!

Just heard this wonderful story from a friend of mine, who is dating a guy who has a ten year old son.

She was going out for her normal jog, and Master Ten asked if he could come along with her. She told us how she was puzzled by this as he had never asked before to do this. She wondered if he wanted to talk about something.

Well yes he did.

After a few minutes, he asked if he could ask her a question, and she said of course he could.

He then said he had a question about “big” people, indicating with his hands and arms, he meant large or fat people. She wanted for the question and it was:

Whenever I see a big person, my thing stands up. Why is that?

You can just imagine the effort required to keep a straight face, and/or not crack a joke that he has been watching too much of Rosie O’Donnell on The View.

So she did what a good politician should do, and answered the question with a question.

Ummm, that is interesting. What happens when you see a tall skinny person.

And another can’t make it up answer:

It makes me need to go to the toilet and have a wee.

Oh dear. He is going to have a rough few years!

In between uncontrollable laughter, as she told me this, my only advice was to remember the story so you could tell it at his 21st in 11 years time!
