So, as you all may or may not know, I work as an assistant librarian in my town. It's a job that mostly entails running around cleaning up after people for the better part of five hours per day, and tolerating obnoxious patrons and not being able to do anything about it because I'm not actually recognised as an employee by the town. But that's besides the point. This thread is about children and the things they say. Particularly the strange things they say in reference to me that I happen to overhear in the workplace. Back in October, around Halloween, I had dressed up as a cat to spread some festivities. I just had a tail and some ears pinned on. Still, a little boy walks by and says to his mother, "Mommy, I want to pet the pretty kitty ears and tail!" The mother looks and starts to tell him that it's not appropriate to touch other people, especially if you don't know them, but I went over to them and started pretending that the ears and tail were real. "It's okay to pet them, just don't do it backwards, because it's very uncomfortable, and I don't like having my tail pulled, nya." He was very excited to say the least. And then today, I was walking around putting back books, and a little girl is with her father. She turns to look at me and whispers really loudly, "Daddy, is that a boy?" Her father looks at me, fumbles for an answer, and says to her, "No, that's a girl, her hair just fell out." The girl says, "Oh." And goes back to her toys. I recently got a haircut, so it's shorter than most young women would go. I just about died laughing. Anyway, that's all I have to say for now.
My son about 6 months ago, asked me if lesbians were the people that don't eat meat No son, they're vegetarians ? Not laughed like that for a long time.
You could have just let her wear them, and just packed a pair of sweats or something extra to go over them when she decided you were right. ?
Pictures of what? ? My crappy costume? You guys need proof that I have hair pins with cat ears on them? Anyone with artistic talent can make them in 2 seconds.
I told my two year a couple weeks ago that she drove me up the wall.. quickly followed up by.. I want to take you back to the doctor to get ears that aren't painted on.. She looked at me and said "I'm taking YOU back to the doctor you drive me up the wall up the door and out the window"
This is what my teacher told me about his daughter She was trying to call him and she says"hey dad dad dad"then she got mad and said "YO BOAYH IM CALLING YOU"
