I was knocked over by a tiny kid on a scooter yesterday. He was going right for my husband (6'3") and I shouted "Look out, sweetheart!" at him (the kid) and he switched course and headed right for me (5'9", I guess I looked like an easier target).

I fell right over, it was loving hilarious and I could not stop laughing. This child was less than three feet tall, maybe 35 pounds.

His mum made him apologize and I ruined the teaching moment because I was laughing so hard it was clear I wasn't upset.

Dorling Kindersley books are great because they have lots of facts AND pictures.

A friend heard her 4 year old son fall out of bed in the middle of the night and lay there quietly expecting to have to get up when the crying started. Instead, from the other room she heard a muffled "oh, for gently caress's sake" and he climbed back into bed.

I want that child to become President or Prime Minister or Chancellor of whatever country he lives in, because he is awesome as hell.

Do they commonly sing the national anthem at stage productions...?

No, but maybe it's a thing in Missouri?

I have a strong urge to shout "Play ball!" after hearing the national anthem, which makes Memorial Day ceremonies a little awkward.

I have some friends who are now teenagers and very cool, but when they were little they used to rate their injuries by the number of "owie stars" they warranted (per comic books, especially Tintin).

I might have been 7 but yeah, I did. I'd taught myself to read at 2 so that followed pretty naturally. (Can you tell I was looking at these in advance of my autism assessment today? Hyperlexia is apparently a thing in autistic girls especially.)

What's up hyperlexia buddy?

That's a really good poem. It scans, rhymes well, and builds to a climax. A+ for little pookel.

This is why personal care items like toothbrushes, soap, shampoo, etc are called toiletries, right?

Other way around. Toilet used to refer to the whole ritual of personal care (washing, combing hair, etc.) before actual toilets were invented.
