June 29, 20223 yr Well, for a limited time, you can fire up Among Us and chat with "FartyPoopPants" until he changes his display name to some other amalgamation of the scatological.
June 29, 20223 yr Since it’s summertime and the wife is at home all day, the girls aren’t in daycare. Every morning when I get ready for work, my oldest (21 months old) preempts my leaving with a really long drawn out “Byyyyye Dadddddy” as soon as I touch my keys.
July 2, 20223 yr My 3 year old has a theme for naming shops: HEB = The Food Store Donut and Kolache shop = The Donut Store McDonalds = The Chicken Nugget Store Any Pizza place = The Pizza Store CVS = The ABC's Store Target = Target Target is the only store he's learned the name of so far, and I can't believe it didn't get the name "the toy store". I don't think he even knows what McDonalds is, but we do reinforce the names a bit, because we get a kick out of how he names them. We will correct it in the future, but for now it's a cute pattern.

Turns out it was Walmart. No idea why that name.

July 13, 20223 yr He was angry at his mother for some dumb reason or another this afternoon, and he thought that he needed to play a prank to get her back. His bright idea was to take his collection of cicada skins and dump them into the mailbox. I pointed out that this was actually more of a prank on the mailman, and that depending on how much mail we received tomorrow, then they might all end up being crushed into dust and then it would just become a mess that he would have to clean up. So he dumped them all back into his tin, and Mrs. Doom remains unpranked and blissfully ignorant of what nearly transpired. Edited July 13, 20223 yr by Prepuce of Doom

August 3, 20223 yr My wife and I took our 2-1/2 year old granddaughter out for a “date” to McDonald’s. We were about the only people dining in, and in walks a 70-something year old man wearing overalls (this was in Iowa). Our granddaughter starts singing Old McDonald Had A Farm at the top of her lungs. My back was to the old guy, and I couldn’t understand why my wife was choking on her food.

August 6, 20223 yr We had lunch today at a little mom and pop place in our little town. The door to the back dining room was closed with a sign saying, “Closed, reserved for larger parties.” The lunch rush filled the front dining room up, so the server opened the door to the back to let more people sit. My kid asks, “why is she letting people back there? Because they’re bigger people?”

August 9, 20223 yr Doomlet is very much interested in purchasing a "realistic decoy poop" to leave on his friend's doorstep after he rings the bell and runs away. I think I'm going to have to be a good father and make the purchase for him.

I think I'm going to have to be a good father and make the purchase for him. About 40 years ago I confiscated a fake dog turd that a student surreptitiously placed on the classroom floor behind my back while I was writing something on the chalkboard. Of course there was a round of laughing when I turned around and spotted it… deadpan. It was about 3” or 4” long, made out of a ferrous material, and was very realistic. Took it home to prank Mrs. Brat, who did not appreciate the humor. One of my sons mentioned not long ago that he still had it somewhere. He used it to prank people now & then all the way through college. Edited August 9, 20223 yr by Armybrat

August 26, 20223 yr Rather than "like taking candy from a baby," Doomlet used the expression, "it's so easy, it's like scaring a baby" yesterday. I asked him how easy it was to scare a baby, and he explained, "all you have to do is say, 'look out, there's a shark!' and then they'll be scared because they don't know anything." ~~~~~ We asked him how school was yesterday, and in describing what he did at recess, he told us that he "played the Chicken Shack game with Maeve." We asked him to tell us more about that, and he explained that he pretends to be the chicken shack owner, and he chases Maeve (who pretends to be the chicken) around the playground with his axe, and when he catches her, he chops her up into chicken nuggets. Mrs. Doom and I were mildly concerned that perhaps Maeve might not want to be chased and/or chopped into nuggets, but apparently she's the one who came up with this game.

September 10, 20223 yr Popular Post He just read a book about rabbits, and quizzed Mrs. Doom and me about what their biggest predator is. I guessed coyotes and Mrs. Doom guessed birds of prey. He informed us that the correct answer is humans, and "that's why you don't trust hillbillies."
September 24, 20223 yr Popular Post This isn't just the doing of the Doomlet, but also his classmates. The other day when Mrs. Doom came home after picking up the boy at school, she immediately told me that every single second grader coming out of the school doors was talking about the same thing: one of the toilets in the school bathroom is haunted. These two illustrations were in his backpack that day. It has been speculated that it is the ghost of George Washington (note the tri-corn hat on the left). In case it needs to be said, there is no logical reason (in my estimation, at least) to assume any connection to George Washington. I asked him to tell me why he thought the toilet was haunted, and Exhibit #1 is that "a girl saw an invisible hand" (yes, you read that correctly) while using the bathroom. Exhibit #2 is that there was a coat found on the floor of the bathroom with nobody wearing it, and nobody knows whose it is. He asked me if I thought the toilet was haunted, so naturally I agreed that it certainly seemed that way. He was glad to hear that, because apparently all of the other adults don't believe them. He and his buddies have taken it upon themselves to investigate this matter and "collect evidence." This has been an ongoing saga with regular updates. I hope that I've included them all. Additional corroborating evidence includes the fact that the lights went off in the bathroom, that a stall door opened while a kid was taking a dump without anyone opening it, a cockroach spotted under the sink (this is suspicious because according to the detectives, cockroaches are only found in Africa [???]), and a tarantula has allegedly been spotted in the girl's bathroom. For a few days, he wasn't using the bathroom at all during the day, but we eventually convinced him that this is an unnecessary precaution. Nevertheless, the motto for the boys working the case is "don't wash hands, and don't look back." Not great, obviously, but at least he's using the bathroom at school again. Today we caught him Googling "haunted bathrooms in Illinois" and much to our surprise, there is a haunted women's bathroom at the Lincoln Park Zoo, so he's already decreed that Mrs. Doom is not allowed to use that bathroom the next time we go to that zoo. This has been going on for more than a week now. I'm doing everything I can to keep stoking the fear and curiosity in order to drag it out for as long as possible, and just to indirectly fuck with the other kids. I'll continue to update you all if it continues into a third week...
