Mom In Scrubs has started a little thing going because she realised that having children induces bizarre sentences. She's calling it "Things I Never Thought I'd Need To Say" (TINTINTS) and her first offering for us was
"Stop Drinking Your Potatoes. That's rude."
You'll have to high-tail it over to hers for the explanation for that one.
She pointed out a perfect example of this in my post yesterday when I said,
"Here's your Batman underpants back. Thanks for the loan."
I bet if we think about it we come out with these gems a lot. Only today at work we were having snack time and I found I had occasion to use the phrase,
"Spike! Take that carrot out of your eye and eat it."
There must be thousands of these floating out in the ether. How about you? Have you said anything weird and whacky recently?

I will have to think on this one, but I'm glad I went back and read your previous post once I read this one.
I'm sure there have been many of these in my life, but they don't hang around in my memory.
"Yes, Dojo, that was a really funny poopy! Good job!"
Oh my, K. You're killing me. LOL
"Ben! Your hair is NOT a wash cloth!"
This is great!! Thanks for running with it!!
And here I thought I was coming over here to read about "tinnitis." I thought you had ringing in your ears!
We'll have to have a "TINTINTS Tuesday/Thursday" posting when we can roll these out. Parents of small children, we're calling you out!!
"Call off the dogs — I'm your Dad..."
Sarah there must be a vast untapped well of TINTINTS that you say to your dogs every day!
Kiersten Ha! Small Son went through a phase of seeing what his poop looks like. "This one looks like a snail but yesterday it looked like some sheeps!"
You gotta love 'em!
That's a good one Natalie - I can match that with "you're underpants are not a hat!"
MIS great idea! I'll do a TINTINTS Thursday. I'll save them up during the week at school. You have very good ideas!
Oh Whirl! Was that Son of Whirl or Geoff?
I DID IT!!! I started TINTINTS THURSDAY!!
Check it out over at my place!
(you have the funniest word verifications! today it's "kywooger")
Love your blog and the artistic outline. I said something funny and stupid to my 14-year-old son last night, but trying to remember it today, is impossible. Maybe later.
Wow.
I know what she's talking about.
I would have loved to have seen someone with a carrot in their eye!!! I probably would have laughed hystracilly!!! (i can't spell sorry!)
The dogs - yes. But most of those are about eating poop and the easy bake cat ovens that produce the really good poop.
I know I've got some good ones somewhere in my head. I'll be back when I think of them...
I don't know about saying weird and whacky things but I'm sure as nuts doing them!
