6 months later. same 7-year-olds. same amount of laughs.
on superhero's character flaws
SYO: (drawing a smiley face on a superhero lollipop) Now he has a mouth so he can eat you.
Me: But he's a superhero....they don't eat people.
SYO: Sometimes they turn bad. And people eat meat, and you're made of meat, so he can eat you.
on the adaptability of the dermis
(observing a cut on my hand) Well it looks like skin grows back. Because there isn't a hole.
on the woes of facial features
Sometimes your lips get sticky and stick to stuff.
on body image
Me: (after SYO had force fed me approximately 37 pretzels) Are you trying to make me fat?
SYO: (horrified) No! Look at your body...you're not (*voice dropped to an embarrassed whisper*) fat.
on altering the human anatomy
I squished your head and made it into a teeny candy.
on paying attention in school
SYO: Sometimes my teacher tells me to put on my brain cap. Or something like that. Actually she says thinking cap.
Me: Do you put your brain thinking cap on?
SYO: I don't know what that means.
on the connectivity of the human body
SYO: I'm gonna smell your hair.
Me: Okay. What does it smell like?
SYO: You.
Me: What do I smell like?
SYO: Your hair....because your hair is part of you. It grows our of your head. Right next to your brain.
