Game Show Humor
« on: September 29, 2009, 09:55:39 PM »
We were at a Thai restaurant this past weekend.  My son thought it would be fun to drop grains of rice through his straw into his Sprite soda.  After a few moments of this, he proudly turned at me and said "Daddy!  Look!  The Rice is Sprite!  Doo doo duh doo!", and launched into his rendition of TPIR theme music and started dancing around the table.  While his table manners were lacking, I must say I was impressed, and proud, of his GS reference!

My five-year-old daughter on an IUFB (a bracelet): "Oh, the boys won't like that!"  The two-year-old son can basically hum back parts of the theme, too.  Guess we're educating the future of America, right? :D

GS reference or not, that's some pretty impressive wordplay from a six year old.  I think you have a lot to be proud of.

Not to mention freakin' adorable. You should send that into Woman's World or something. They publish little fun stories like that.

I feared that this would be a rehash of the one joke posted here where you replace a word in a game show title with "penis."  Much to my delight, it isn't.  As Bill Cosby would say, "Kids say the darndest things!" :-)

Instead, we're taking the titles of game shows and following them with the words "between the sheets".

Quite often, you're right.
