Reason #88 – I taught my son that spitting is funny
Reason #88 – I taught my son that spitting is funny
Sep 22C and I are already sought-after criminals in Canada, but now I think we will also be wanted Dead or Alive in a number of other places: Dodge City, Kansas; Nashville, Tennessee; Wauwatosa, Wisconsin.
The New York Underground.
Singapore.
Because I’ve created a monster.
A spitting monster. An illegally spitting monster if we’re ever at any of those places.
It all started innocently enough: C was playing with a keyring and I grabbed it from him and started growling like a dog with a bone. Because I’m all ladylike and classy like that.
And then I don’t know why I decided to mock-spit it to one side. Probably because I am so ladylike and classy.
Ptui.
The crowd went WILD.
So I did it again.
And again.
And again.
And another dozen times.
And then once more, with feeling.
It was not until I watched the whole video that I realised… “uh-oh, I may have just taught my son that spitting is funny!” (Because singing about loogies was clearly not bad enough parenting.)
Dang. I so wanted to take C to several of those places!
I think we’ll start with Tennessee; I know someone there who just might take pity and post our bail!









HILARIOUS! Spitting is so funny.
And you could be my husband, who taught Payton “pull my finger”wne she was just over a year. You’d go to hold her hand, and she would either fart and laugh hysterically, or bend over in a grunt, trying her best to get some gas.

He has yet to find farting funny, but sneezing and coughing are the Best Jokes Ever.
I swear the neighbours must think I am consumptive. And that I like singing about it!

Maybe all those other places, but not China. Here everyone spits. School teachers, old ladies, buddhist monks and babies. He’d fit right in, haha!
