I wonder how far a hit man would travel? Asking for a friend. A friend, who lives just near Brisbane ...
Were you learning a musical instrument when you were a kid? This is payback.
Baby had to dumb it down for mammy and I bet there was an eyeroll aswel
I usually just put small bits of moisturiser in them and bring them to hotel or staying with family and if I forget the jar I still have my very dear cream at home so no big loss
The teacher filled it in for them. That’s how they do it until the kid can write. 🙄

Doesn't matter, the same question (and the answers) still apply.

My great grandfather found me a 50's version at a yard sale, and I was absolutely infuriated when my father removed the ingredients that were no longer legal 😅

Load More Replies...Any word is a swear word if you say it with the proper amount of invective. Learned that in several years of working for both major Florida theme parks (Mouse and also Not-Mouse).
I got written up at a sleepaway camp for saying ~Pop-tarts~ when a kid accidentally slammed the door on my finger... I'm like seriously??? When did that become a cuss word??? Director looked me dead in the eyes and says ~it's not what you said.It's the way you said it~

Last time I took kids to the zoo they answered, the bin chickens (Ibis)
I managed to explain nose blowing early on with my nephews. Taught them to blow raspberries with lips. Then taught them to keep mouths closed and to try and blow raspberries out of their nose. It worked :)
Typically school gyms don't have the same workout equipment as a regular gym- at least, not available to students outside of sports, in my experience.

She looked around, counted, looked around, counted, saw me holding up two fingers and pointing down, said "Max and Carl come down here NOW" and Max and Carl came. They probably still have no idea how she knew.
I tell them it's the only way to get an intelligent conversation around here.
My teenager and husband asks me all the time why im talking to myself, im talking to them, they just don't listen and now they think km loosing it
We were at my parent's house for Christmas with my sister and her family and my SIL. At some point after eating someone said that the lunch was lovely. My son piped up with "Lovely? I'll give you lovely." then let rip a very loud fart. He was cackling like a manic as he left the room. My son's spirit guide is Mr Rude from the Mr Men Show.
The other day my 11 year old referred to my s****y birth mom as my 'spawn point' and I laughed so much. That is what she will be called from now on 🤣
Mostly made-up BS, but never mind, if X users find them entertaining, I am not arguing.
