You live in California! Isn't there a substantial crustacean population out there?

My great nephew asked his mother if she was a lesbian. She said it is lesbian and I am not why do you ask? He had seen her on the floor playing with his baby sister, tickling and having fun with her.
BUAHAHAHAHAHHAHA that's priceless!

My sister would kill me for telling this story, but she was about 10 and she and my mom and I were discussing "why would anyone want to be called Dick instead of Richard."
She said, "If my name was Richard, I'd want to be called Kyle." "What?" "Kyle. You know, as a nickname." "Well, that's not really a common nickname for Richard..." "Yes it is! There's a kid at school named Richard but we call him Kyle!" "Are you sure that's not his middle name?" "YES!"
I don't think we ever convinced her that Kyle isn't a nickname for Richard...

So I'm at EuroDisney the summer after my senior year of high school. I am with my Spanish teacher (it was a school trip) and a girl that just finished her sophmore year. We walk through Sleeping Beauty's Castle- which at EuroDisney comes complete with a really cool animatronic dragon underneath. As we get back out into the sun, the sophmore turns to us and asks, in all seriousness, "Was that a real dragon?"

Second...my two boys were about 6 and 7, were using some foul language while calling names-mostly in fun, as they did not at the time know what they were saying...told them those were NOT NICE and to think of something else, that wasn't a bad word, to call them. This is what my angels came up with (Hope it comes through alright): peniswrinkle! I had to turn around quick as my eyes were watering from my efforts not to bust out laughing... Ah, boys, gotta love em!! I am adding that one to my vocabulary!!!

"Yes, sweetie. And here is a free package of birth control pills. Yes, they stop you from getting pregnant. Yes, you're welcome."

This is a thread about embarrassing things, not STOOPID things.

Well, if she had been my kid, I totally would have been embarrassed. Actually, for me the funny part happened immidiately after as the teacher and I looked at each other, both of us so dumbfounded we couldn't come up with an answer. In my mind, I knew it wasn't a real dragon. I knew it wasn't possible, but for a brief moment, I forgot why. It was probably 30 full seconds before I finally said "No, dragons don't exist."

I beg to differ. According to Game of Thrones they do in fact exist

I remeber being about 10 or so, I already had the lecture on where babies come from, and asking my mom "Well how can <teenager across the street> be pregnant if she is not married?"
Guess I was a pretty naive kid!

I think every kid asks that question when the "birds and bees" lecture starts out with "When a couple is married..." instead of "When a man and woman are in love..."

Not my kids but still funny.
Back in the day, JC Penny had a fake bathroom setup as a display. The little boy was getting to the solo stage of potty training, he saw the display toilet and realized that it was about that time. Mom was distracted and didn't realize what was happening till it was already done. They in a bit of a hurry.

Like DD turning on a bidet and ranking from it, or trying to. We left that model home in a hurry...

My DD's kindy teacher emailed me last month with a story. Apparently in class DD announced that whenever her and her brother watch TV, her parents "just KISS and KISS and KISS!!" The teacher told me she responded with, "You must get to watch TV a lot then, huh?" What's even funnier is that when I later asked DD about it, she said she knew it wasn't true but that saying it was funny and would make the class laugh. I'm apparently raising a future Richard Pryor. My kids' kindergarten teacher used to tell the parents at "Meet the Teacher Night" that she wouldn't believe half the stuff the kids said about us if we didn't believe half the stuff the kids said about her. ;D

No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.

..::DH to his Sunday School teacher: "If this is the body of Christ, am I eating his butt?" ::..
Same trip to Europe. There with a whole bunch of highschool kids who are NOT from Catholic families, in the national cathedral in Toledo, Spain. Our tour guide kept referring to the "body of Christ" being kept in a certain location. Teacher finally had to step forward and explain that they meant the wafers for Communion, not that the church in Spain had the actual body of Christ. Tour guide then tried to explain transubstantiation. Once we were back outside, teacher said once again- communion wafers, not an actual body.
