My pup is all about the extra food, and I think that’s the true bond he has with C right now. But! In this case it was a barely eaten Gogurt, and that thing had weight to it when it hit the floor, narrowly missing/scaring the crap out of him.
"No, we don't play our sister like a drum." C wanted to practice percussion with his drumstick on Purple.
What is this thread? I thought it was in The Hens' Nest because it was for things chickens never thought they would say to their kids. If you guys want it to be for every funnyish thing you utter, I’m moving it.
“(Fry), if you don’t come back here you right now you don’t get ice cream and you don’t get to drive the Audi!”
"Oh good boy, you're doing such a good job being gentle! Yes, pet Purple! NO WE DO NOT BITE THE DOGGIE."
Nooo. She literally sits on the couch with her iPad and fights with Siri over the stupidest shit! The fight above was because the iPad is linked to my account so Siri knows my name. When P tells Siri that her name is P, Siri says something like "Okay A (me), I will call you P." P doesn't want her to say my name at all so she yells at her "STOP IT SIRI! I TOLD YOU MY NAME IS P! WHY AREN'T YOU LISTENING!?" The most ridiculous fight she's had is when Siri didn't bring up the right "how to floss" video... ETA: She fights with Alexa too.
Today I had to explain to a doctor that the reason a 13-year-old was on an oral contraceptive was because she was having sex. They still made me look up the original note in the chart. Spoiler: sex.
She was just surprised. She tends a little more conservative (and also was having a really hard time with a pronoun switch for one of our trans patients). Like, friend, you are on a child psych inpatient unit. A 13-year-old having sex isn't even the most shocking thing of the last 5 minutes.
It doesn't even surprise me anymore when docs/residents show exactly how sheltered/conservative they are. It's like they expect families to fit into this same little box of upper middle class/white/straight/christian. Sometimes they find out that a patient is sexually active at a fairly young age and they want to ignore it instead of making sure that there has been a discussion about birth control. That's how we get teen parents, doc.
“Well do you want the peanut bar that I licked?” -After he started crying and rejected the only snack I had with us. He ate it. I did not lick it. “Well do you want the special hotdog shaped sausage? How about if I put taco meat on it?” -After he insisted he too wanted a sausage, NOT a hotdog. He ate the hotdog and the leftover taco meat (with ketchup and mustard )
For context, Fry often congratulates himself on being “so genius”. “Genius is curing cancer. It’s not running away from cleaning up crayons.”
“You have a choice. You can be happy patient or sad patient.” It doesn’t work. The response is always “NO patient!!”. That doesn’t stop it from being my new motto.
