Having Kids Is Hilarious!
« on: April 12, 2002, 04:43:13 PM »
Some of you may have already seen this but I'm posting anyway.
Warning, remove sharp objects from pockets,  no drinking, no smoking while reading this

For those who already have children past this age, this is hilarious.
For those who have children this age, this is not funny.
For those who have children nearing this age, this is a warning.
For those who have not yet had children, this is birth control.

The following came from an anonymous Mother in Austin, Texas:

Things I've learned from my Children (honest & no kidding):

1. A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft.
house 4 inches deep.

2. If you spray hairspray on dust bunnies and run over them with
rollerblades, they can ignite.

3. A 3-year old's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded
restaurant.

4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not
strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.

5. You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on.
When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a
few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a
long way.

6. The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.

7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh," it's already too late.

8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.

9. A six-year old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a
36-year old man says they can only do it in the movies.

10. Certain Leggos will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year old.

11. Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.

12. Super glue is forever.

13. No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.

14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.

15. VCR's do not eject PB&J sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.

16. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.

17. Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.

18. You probably do not want to know what that odor is.

19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on. Plastic toys do
not like ovens.

20. The fire department in Austin, TX has a 5-minute response time to my house. They all know us by name!

21. The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworm dizzy.

22. It will, however, make cats dizzy.

23. Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.

24. The mind of a 6-year old is wonderful. First grade...true story:

One day the first grade teacher was reading the story of the Three Little Pigs to her class. She came to the part of the story where the first pig was trying to accumulate the building materials for his home. She read, "...And so the pig went up to the man with the wheelbarrow full of straw and said, 'Pardon me sir, but may I have some of that straw to build my house?'"

The teacher paused then asked the class, "And what do you think

that man said?"

One little boy raised his hand and said, "I think he said... 'Holy
shit! A talking pig!'"

The teacher was unable to talk for the next 10 minutes due to
laughing on the floor.

Having dogs can be just as fun:

1.  A dog can eat 10lbs of coffee right out of the can
2.  A dog can only hold 10lbs of coffee down for about 15 minutes.
3.  Coffee ground stains are difficult to remove from beige carpet.
4.  Dogs do not digest leather well.  This can explain the finger of your favorite work glove being found while "scooping".
5.  Dogs violate the laws of nature by generating more weight in waste than food they eat and water they drink combined.
6.  Cats scratch couches.  Dogs eat couches.
7.  A single down pillow can cover a bedroom with 8 inches of feathers.
8.  A dog would rather eat two left shoes than one entire pair.
9.  Dogs can turn doorknobs... though only when nobody is looking.
10.  A guilty looking dog is.
11.  Dogs are capable of digging complex tunnel networks.
12.  Dogs will eat anything that falls from a kitchen counter... including silverware.
13.  A dog is capable of of licking all of the fur off of a dead mouse.
14.  A dog can remove hard candy from a wrapper in 1.2 seconds flat.
15.  A dog need exactly 15 seconds of nobody looking to deposit gifts on the carpet.
16.  A dog is capable of clearing any surface less than 20" in height with a single sweep of its tail.
17.  A dog will bark at any jogger within a 40 mile radius of your home.
18.  A dog will not bark at the car thieves rolling your Acura out of the driveway.

All these are just personal observations from my weapons of mass destruction.  Your mileage may vary.

I was the kid who generated these stories!

My favorite thing to do when I was only TWO was to wake up in the middle of the night and remove the headlights in my parent's cars.

I also would lock myself out of the house in the middle of the night, in snowy weather, while I tried out my new batman snowsuit (pajamas....).

Begged my mother to let me subscribe to playboy because one day i would be married and I needed to "get used to naked women"...

Could take apart my crib before I could walk.  Usually did this at night.

Had to be leashed to the piano every time my mom took a shower so I wouldn't get into things.

Set fire to my bike by making an aluminum foil "exhaust pipe", stuffed wads of foam in there, and then all kinds of flammable chemicals.  Ignited it, and VIOLA, I was riding a motorcycle.  Age 5.

Made a "homemade flashlight" by taking a couple lengths of insulated wiring, hooking it up to a spare light switch my dad had lying around and duct taping the ends to a lighbulb.  The other ends of the wire went directly into the socket.  Lots of sparks and smoke.  Suprised I didn't get hurt.  I must have been 7.

Broke into a bank's time safe by wandering into it and poking around.  I set off the silent alarm.  Cops rushed the building, scaring everyone, guns drawn.  

on and on and on........  My family does not let me forget these.  There are many, many more....

I probably would have been diagnosed Hyperactive these days, but back then, I was just called "busy".  I was not bad, just active.
