Blitz goes high brow …
Grand daughter said I was a liar …I said" Liar Liar pants on Fire" she said “I’ll get some matches”
Have recently been explaining world issues with Jr, who rocked up randomly and stated “I think I’ve got it right, starving is when little boys and girls in the world have nothing to eat.”
Me: “nearly it’s when you’re really really really hungry that youre so sick and may die if you don’t eat something.”
Jr: “yeah and the waters really really really dirty.”
“And it also makes you…?”
“Really really really…Carbon dioxide!”
The other day my 4-year-old son walked up to me and commenced singing a ditty he thought up:
“When you’ve got dirty hands
When you’ve got poo-poo hands
What are you gonna do?
Put em on daddy’s face”
Thankfully he didn’t have poo-poo hands. Problem was the melody he created was so catchy I walked around all weekend singing the tune to myself.
“You’re lazy dad”
“Your fat dad”
“You smell dad”
“You’re 40 dad”
I love visiting my dad.

Why did you say you’re vegetarian?

My son coined the term “Hamwich”, on the weekend.
He just wanted a piece of ham.

RE teacher: ‘God made each one of you’
Her : " No he didnt. I was made by a scientist" (She’s IVF and very inquisitive about how she got in her mums tummy)
RE teacher : “err… well he made all the rest of you”
On a road trip last weekend yossarian junior was trying to sing the fireman sam theme and kept messing up the second line to “fireman sam comes along”. Now because he’s a bit of a cheek he always adds bum or poo into songs as 4 year olds do, and it led to this version
“when he hears that fire alarm
Fireman sam comes in your bum”
I almost drove off the road

don’t think he thinks that quick after having just had a blanket statement pulled out from under him.
On another day he said ‘God made the Sun and the stars’
Now normally he would have gotten away with it, but my oldest loves astronomy. She had already asked me about the sun and stars a few weeks earlier and we looked at few books together and talked about stellar nurseries and how stars form from clouds of gas. She knows stars are suns.
She pipes up ‘The sun is a ball of gas that caught on fire, and new ones start all the time, and the old ones die, that’s why there are so many stars’.
Teachers told me they had to try and visibly contain their laughter.

I have never been able to work out that line either.
So, according to your daughter, does God get credit for anything (I assume this is a 'religious instruction' class that she attends with your approval or encouragement)?5 year oldBig back-peddle by teacher.

WOAH.
She’s five. So ‘according to her’ is just within the limits of her limited life experience, which is what this thread is about, isn’t this ‘kids say the darndest things’??.
Lets not turn this thread into a dogma debate. If you want to go deeper after my response please PM me, or, start a new thread. I don’t mind talking further about it but I don’t think this is the thread for this type of discussion
god has no place on blitz.
he forsook us long time ago.

OK, I’ll shut my clam, but it’s just a question that came to mind after reflecting on the “things your little un said”. Seemed there might have been a theme going, that’s all.
Well, that escalated quickly.
