I've failed as a mother
With all of my grandiose ideas about teaching my kids to read and learn stuff, I completely neglected some of the finer points of childhood. And after a 20 minute conversation with The Girl yesterday trying to explain who Marvin the Martian is and why 'Where's the kaboom?' is so damn funny and her just totally not getting it...I realized what a loser I truly am.
Or she is.
I haven't really decided which.
But I did, in an attempt to redeem us both, order a crap load of dvds this morning because, with God as my witness, no child of mine shall ever utter "Who's Bugs Bunny?" again.

"Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth shattering kaboom"
I've always loved that quote...lol
I sure hope she didn't say "Who's Foghorn Leghorn?" Loony Tunes rock!
that's just downright scary. i say, downright scary!
i hope you got a rush delivery on those dvds!
Bugs Bunny is THE BEST!!! He was a Tranny long before even knew what a tranny was!!!
So, how we doin' on the cartoon catch up with The Girl? Does she 'get it'?
Do you mean sad like quoting Ace Ventura sad? Cause I'm SO there.
Every time I park the car...."Lyyyyke a glovvve!"...they don't get it.
Duct tape and DVDs and they'll never question you again.
Promise.
Hellooooooo? :: tap tap tap ::
I love this blog. I just stumbled across it. Well done! 3 Hole Punch is probably the best name for an ex-husband's girlfriend ever.
hellooo... is anyone there? hellooo...
*silence.
pssst, yo readers of this blog... the cat's away, the mice can play!! :)
The Marvin the Martian episodes were hands down the funniest Bugs Bunny ones evah.
My seven year old son doesn't get why they're so funny, either, which makes me feel at turns frustrated and sad.
Kids these days.
I've got a bottle of merlot if you come out and play.........
