Random question from LyricKid

"Hey Mom?"

Yeah?

"Have you ever shot a sniper before?"

....Huh?

"A sniper. Have you ever shot one?"

Uhhh...no. When on earth would I have had a reason to do something like that??

"Oh, I dunno. I was just curious."

-----> me making the WTFhuh?? face

1. Perhaps LK meant "snipe"?

As in "snipe hunting"? :)

[Lyric]

4. No, he meant the kind with a rifle.

I have no idea where he comes up with this stuff, but I have to say, I'm rather flattered that he apparently thought me capable of taking out a sniper!

:rofl:

7. Well keep it that way.

Your street cred will serve you well when he gets older.:P

The question that throws me? Have you ever shot a sniper BEFORE?

3. You should have said

"Yes I have and let us never speak of this again if you know what is good for you." and then gave him the "look".

Of course, I'm an evil momma.

5. Rhythm says that the Proper Answer should be

8. Next little gem in this conversation:

LK: "I really hope I'm never shot by a silencer."

Rhythm: "Silencers don't really shoot p...*gets elbowed by me--hard*

Me: Oh really, LK? Why is that, sweetheart?

LK: "Well, nobody would ever know what happened to me, 'cause nobody would hear it, and it could be ten years before they find my body. Could be a hundred years, actually. Or maybe an hour. Or ten minutes."

Rhythm and Me: :wow:

LK: "Do our Army and our police have silencers? I sure bet they have a darn good reason, like so they don't bother the neighbors. I'm just gonna go play Guitar Hero now."

Rhythm and Me: Well...okay then.

:rofl:

9. In the "Why Did I Have Kids" Category

"Mom, did they have tables when you were a kid?"

"Yes, honey, they did. Tables have been around for a long time. Your grandparents had them when they were kids, even. Why do you ask?"

"I was wondering how you did your homework if you didn't have a table."

"OK."

"So, did they have paper when you were little?"
