Oceanic dangers
Wee Boy: so Dave what are your parents up to these days?
Me: well, in a week they’ll be sailing around the Virgin Islands on a sailboat

Staying up for the Bears
Me: hey dude, it’s past 10 and there’s no way the Bears are going to win this. Why don’t you start heading to bed

Social Studies Teacher Annoyances
Wee Boy: Dave you’re an awesome step dad. Plus you get mad at a lot of things, like people chewing with their mouth open. But that’s okay. You’d probably make a good social studies teacher.
