Stick with the classics!

The start of a pre teen smirk!

The sardonic grin came early in your life!

I believe this is the year that I told my 4th grade teacher that her disqualification of one of my word pairs in the homophone contest was "bullshit." When called to the office and told by the principal of my offense, my dad @jbelvl.bsky.social asked, "Well, was it?" Was it what? "Was it bullshit?"👇🏻

After the shock, Dad explained to the principal that "I need to know if it was bullshit to determine whether I'm punishing him for inappropriate language, or I'm punishing him for inappropriate language and faulty analysis." Now do you see why I am the way I am? #AT40

I kinda love your dad!

And I say that as a teacher. Good for him!

The homophone pair, by the way, was "wear" and "where," which she dq'ed because the latter is pronounced "wHere." I showed the dictionary phonetic spellings as equal, she points to the alternate that includes "wHere." So, when Family Guy did that "Cool WHip" episode, I about busted a gut.

Wear and where ARE fucking homophones. Gawd. Sorry for my language, but teachers like that make me livid. I'm clenching my teeth.

See? It was bullshit!

You got to love a dad who would name a kitten "Infectious Q Carbuncle Esquire Montague III."

Oh, my heart!

My brother once blew up another kids lunch at the bus stop with a firecracker. The kid's dad shows up at our door. My dad asks my brother if he did it, and, unsurprisingly, he says no. My dad is, "well, that's that" I think hmy dad thought it was hilarious .
