That’s a bad word
September 28th, 2008 by Missy
Dan has been working on modifying the rat cage for a while now, which basically means cutting PVC coated chicken wire to size and ziptying it to the existing structure. The living room is, surprise, currently covered in little bits of chicken wire and the tails of zipties. Dan and I are chatting about it and he says “God, it’s a fucking mess over there.”
Anya pipes in with “That’s a bad word and you can’t say that!”
Dan said “I’m a big person and I can say words like that if I want to.”
Anya: “Not at work you can’t.”
Dan: “Well, I could if I want to.”
Anya: “I’m sure your boss wouldn’t like that.”
Dan: “He wouldn’t really care.”
Anya: “Well anyway, you can’t say words like that in front of little children like me.”
She had me cracking up.. just the way she was talking to Dan like he was some little moron who was too dense to understand what she was saying to him. She sounded so adult while she was berating him.. like a teacher would sound talking to a kid swearing at school.
