Gender Utopia

Wee Boy: Dave, you know what’d be great? If the world were divided and girls had one side and boys had the other. Girls could have their flowers and it would be all pretty on their side and on the boys side you could poop and fart anytime you want. It’d be awesome!

Dietary Hypotheticals

Wee Boy: So Dave, what would you rather eat? Maggot infested cheese or germ infested cheese?
Me: Well I wouldn’t want either
Wee Boy: well let’s say you had no choice, what would you choose?
Me: oh, I guess germ infested cheese
Wee Boy: Yeah good choice. I was thinking I’d probably do the same

Faith in Insurance

(a Geico commercial comes on)

Wee Boy: Dave what company is this lizard for?
Me:Geico..it’s an insurance company.
Wee Boy: what’s that?
Me: it’s a service you pay for so when you have a car accident, they cover the costs.
Wee Boy: are they a lot of money?
Me: Oh yeah. Accidents can cost thousands of dollars
Wee Boy: What?! And I’m supposed to trust my insurance with a lizard?!

Competing with the Chinese

Wee Boy: Dave do you think I should have a shorter school year?
Me: No. Actually there’s states that’d like to have kids go all year round
Wee Boy: Why?
Me: So you can be on the same level as the Chinese kids your age
Wee Boy: why do I have to be at the same level as the Chinese?
Me: Because you’ll have to compete with them for jobs when you get older.
Wee Boy: Dave, there’s no way the Chinese will take my jobs. They can’t even speak our language. You can’t work at the video game store like that
