Heh. That's My Boy

We had to nip out for a few errands this morning. One of said errands was topping at the store for some milk. That was the last stop since we needed milk and not a gallon of bad cheese.

Anyway, as we pulled into the lot, Soupo and I had this exchange (It’s in colors, so there won’t be any “I said” or “he said” stuff. Just colors. I go first.):

Do we need anything but milk today, son of mine?

Are we Jake on peanut butter?

Yeah, we have plenty of peanut butter.

Then I guess we’re Jake on everything.

“Jake”, heh. He’s going to be the coolest kid in Kindergarten.

Actually, we “stopped” at the store. There was “stopping at the store”, not “topping at the store”. Unless you have a headcold. Then it would be more “topping ad duh tore”.

I was so concerned with my colors, I missed that on “Preview”.

But I get another post to my credit, so it’s not a total loss.
-Rue. (post-count hog)

Next up, teaching the kid to say, “Reet-skeet, now we’re cookin’ with gas.” Does he have a tiny little fedora and a wee watchchain to spin around?

Oh, yeah? Well my son met Chris Rock yesterday and gave him a french fry. Put that in your jake and smoke it!

[sub]I have no idea what that means, by the way[/sub]

JuanitaTech, that’s great. Not everybody is so proud of their kid working at McDonald’s.
:wink:

I wonder - what happens one day when Soupo meets a lad named Jake - is it likely to confuse him? Will he come to you all perplexed? Will this push him over the edge?

For answers to this and other pressing questions…

:smiley:

Geeze, Rue. You think you’re a post count hog? I quadruple posted in your last thread. How’s that for padding?

Teach him to say “I’d buy that for a dollar,” and you could maintain his coolness-factor all the way through elementary school.

There’s other stuff, but by the time he goes to get a job, “paradigm shift” and “synergy” might be out of style.

What?

Really?

So I’m not the least bit cool then, huh? Rats.

Juanita, "if you were my pal, you’d know that “Jake” means things are favorably arrayed. (Or did you mean the thing about smoking Chris Rock’s french fry?)

And should I admit how ridiculously pleased I am that Eve responded to my thread? I mean, MY thread! I’m almost giddy! (There is no sarcasm in the above statement.)
-Rue. (Jake today, and hopefully Jake tomorrow.)
