Me: Please put your pants on. Him: Fine, Pickles.

My three-year-old has decided that “Pickles” is a curse word. It basically means “asshole.” Or possibly, “You dick.”

Here is an actual exchange from the other morning:

Me: Please put your pants on.

Him: Fine, Pickles.

He says it right to my face, with complete disgust.

To better illustrate the scene for you, I’ve asked the guy who played Ricky in Better Off Dead to provide a re-enactment using his professional acting skills.

Please enjoy.

This has been my other source of joy while bed-ridden with fever. I have been sneezing, as well. In fact, I should have taken a picture of the thing that I recently got out of my nose, since it’s relevant to the namesake of this video. But, whatever. I’m going to watch this a few more times, then possibly go back to sleep.

Game Description:This web game is a game that reels the powder by using the mouse,sends the wind, and enjoys that the dot dances.

I’ve been sick for the last week, and it has sucked. It’s flu-like symptoms, and I blame the US airport system. I’ve sustained a nominally sub-101 fever for most of this time. My brain doesn’t function correctly under these conditions, hence this sentence structure.

My only joy has come from this game, but I have to say that this is the most fantastic use of my current (and hopefully temporary) sub-life that I have yet encountered.

Oh, and the Pickles video. I’ll post that next.

Above, the popular “soda machine.” People spend tons of time to create these elaborate scenarios, and then simulate them in the physics engine.
