there's always money in the banana stand

An exchange before either of us had really fully woken up this morning, and the dogs were so excited about the fact that we were up early and making park-going-to-noises that they were interfering with park-going-to-preparations:


Me: The dogs know 'fuck off.'

Other: Huh?

M: They know 'fuck off' and it keeps them out of your room.

O [to dogs] Fuck off.

[sound of O's bedroom door closing]

M: That also works.

They really do know 'fuck off.' Too bad I lacked the foresight to train them to obey a word that isn't 'fuck.' But then I'd also need to remember to say that word instead of 'fuck,' which comes so naturally. So it's just as well.


As if figuring out what the hell your hands are isn't hard enough.... Just think about what these kids will be like in 20 years. Yeowza.
