[OT] Djeta as a dog?! Oh you best believe!

I almost left without replying, but then came back...

Teflon Billy and Pielorinho - those are 2 of the rare posts that make me laugh out loud - good work.

..and to any parents who are thining of posting a scathing retort to my commentary, please understand that I wasn't talking about your amazing, flawless infant geniuses.

I was talking about those other kids

Because we all know billy WAS one of those rare and bright children who was well behaved. Of course, at around puberty that all seemed to go downhill rather fast.

Wonder why that was? (ding. Insult round goes to jezter6. Jezter 1, Billy 0)

LOL

edit: My 4 year old is one of those incredibly smart children who just love to tackle, punch, kick, and otherwise maul everyone and everything in sight. He's just smart enough to know I won't kill him for doing it, so he keeps on doing it. You can always try to ride the family dog around the room, but the worst you get is a 15 minute timeout till someone feels sorry for you, or you cry like hell to get out.

By all accounts, that is the god's honest truth. I was in all the advanced classes, and was consodered a marvel of good behaviour by my mother's friends and associates.

Of course, at around puberty that all seemed to go downhill rather fast.

This is, unfortuantely, equally true if not more true

That was an insult? Oh man. Go a few rounds with Snoweel, King Stannis and Scutosorex Shrewlord Here, come back when they've trained you.

Then I'll be able to feel the hit

There's nothing "incredibly smart" about deciding that defiance is it's own reward after recieving no correction for bad, violent behavior (or weak, caving-in "discipline" for bad, violent behavior).

Hell man, Dogs learn that and no one is holding them up as exemplars of brilliance.

Except Border Collies, those things are smart.

Wave, cover your eyes, point to your cheek to have them give you a kiss and then act all bashfull... Basicly do all the stuff you remember the characters at Disny doing when you were a kid. (As long as you weren't like me, who was so shy with Mickey that all I remember are his feet... But they were very expresive feet...)

Are you going to have a mask or a panted face.

Just be very exagerated... And wave, always wave... Even when their right next to you. Trust me on this... When ever you see a person in a big exagerated costume for kids, you ALWAYS see them waving.

Actually, I was thinking....

My wife and I are almost constantly praised for how well-behaved our daughter is. I'm pretty sure that, even if you cloned her 1000 times, you're dead on with the MENSA Monkeys (there's a punk rock band waiting to happen).

There's a direct relationship between the number of kids you have in a group and the number of sanity checks you have to make. It's an exponential, if not logrithmic, scale.

I'm a parent.

Except when I'm transparent. *rimshot*

My kids are hailed as angels by people experienced with ill behaved childrens. That said, my kids are less dumb than most of childhood (or is that kiddom?) Kids don't lack smarts, they lack discretion. They lack inhibition. They lack sense. This gives the appearance of stupidity sometimes. So I'll agree that I can see why some people might say kids are idiots. They act like idiots.*

Djeta: Act all cute and stuff, but imagine you're cursed with lycanthropy and that parents are offering you plump little children so you won't rampage through the village and eat them.

*The payoff comes when you say-at dinner-"noodles, beans, meat..not even you could turn that down," and your 8-year-old son says in a Gollum-voice, "Oh yes we could!"

 

[Derulbaskul]

And make sure that you keep your fluid levels up and have arrangements for regular breaks. Those suits can get really, really, REALLY hot and the last thing you want to do is pass out.

Cheers

[Brother Shatterstone]

Thanks a lot (and you can stop laughing now!)

Oh I don't think I can...

Well I've always been under the impression that kids love shining things, that being said theirs nothing better then duct tape and kids. They enjoy the shininess and you enjoy the quite time.

If that doesn't go over with the parents and I'm not sure why it wouldn’t...

You can always try and change the water dispenser 5 gallon bottle as I found that very amusing, and with a costume it could only become more of a riot.

Anyhow, I’m thinking it’s a good thing you thanked me before hand and not later.
