Transcript:
Alice: Why is our tree tied up? Dad: So it won't jump out of the ground and chase you. Alice: Oh. Dad: When trees are young, they don't know how to stand still. Alice: You can't get me. NYAA! Girl: Taunting the inanimate is cruel.
LOLMy grandpa would do that to us. Just make stuff up for the sake of his own amusement.
We would hear the ice cream truck song and try to run out the door to catch it and he would tell us that was the Peanut Butter man. So unless you wanted peanut butter dont waste your time.
Now I am grown and mess with heads off little kids too.
I can hardly wait to do this to my daughter (she’s 1). I cherish the ability to see the world for what it is: a freakish, bizarre, weird place; how can you get that ability without imagination?
