A two-year-old flex points his arm and finger at himself (and while smiling proudly) after being asked “is someone pooing in their pants?”
Sensing accomplishment in the honesty.

If there is such a thing as a pre-school-level class for aspiring DJs, there has to be at least one student who asks “and wave them like you just don’t care?”
(after the teacher has just taught the students to “raise your hands in the air” )

Waiting outside of a movie theater’s empty, single-exit auditorium feels safer than being the first to wait (and wait alone) inside that auditorium.
Because I actually had this (paranoid?) concern that if a shooter was the second person to enter the auditorium, then what if he or she notices that I am the only target in that room? If that happened, I think … Continue reading →

Ishtty the GingerPooMan
is the diarrhea demon that rapes faces and diaries enforcing forced smiles/moments led to psychiatry. Holidays are when it especially strikes. It’s that stress from expectations, pretending things are “alright”. Is there a way to overcome this monster? Maybe one can … Continue reading →

But poo is in the spoon. And spooning can lead to pooing.
Victim strangely refuses to answer… What happened? What’s he doing?

“I’M NOT BOSSY; I JUST HAVE GOOD IDEAS,” said the five-year-old to her mother.
The five-year-old declared this loudly, and very seriously and matter-of-fact. I was struck by her logic and ego, so then I and the mother laughed. And her daughter kept on going about like she said nothing wrong. There’s validity in her argument, so we just … Continue reading →

Upside down mom is wow. Meanwhile, upside down dad is pep.
Wow + pep = very surprising energy (that can potentially scar children who unintentionally interrupt mom and dad wowing and peping each other, naughty-style).

“Yes, I hit her. But she hits me with her words.”
Wow. Someone actually seriously said that to me, and as an excuse. Words confused with sword, so bully’s defense was physical abuse.

She asked her “Do you actually think I’m going to kill you?”
Then there was an awkward silence. I think it was because she did not know how to answer her mother’s question. How was she supposed to answer her mother’s question?
