my dad used to call me pal when I was a kid you know just as a cute pet name like parents do and then when my sister was 4 we got a new puppy a yellow lab white Shepherd cross and gosh he was a cute little fella. well Arthur's dog is named Pal you know and my sister just thought that was the best so she said well hey we should name this dog Pal wouldn't that be great and my parents just let her do whatever she wanted her entire life starting very early so Pal it was. goodbye pet name from my dad because well hey that's the dogs name now. my sister sucks is what I'm saying.

This sounds v similar to my relationship with my parents/ sister and she married well and lives in a giant house now

Nick Jr. shows back then had some really dark stuff. There is no way that kind of thing would fly today.

It was back in that "no ones paying attention" era when a lot of kid's things were made by counter culture aging hippies

My little sister had a friend (a girl) and my parents would make me go hang out at their house with them for some reason and the whole basement was a play room but it was all girl stuff. Like it was pink and princess themed and they had lots of girl TV shows on vhs and I was too tall for the bouncy castle the whole situation was v awkward honestly
