I am pretty interested to see what kind of traffic this post will generate.
It got you to click-through didn’t it
Anyway, if you have kids or are around kids much you will come to find out they say the funniest stuff. My son who is two can always make me laugh with some of the stuff he says, or at least tries to say! This is where the title of this post comes in to play.
I shared this as a comment on a blog a while back. I thought that I would share it here so that everyone who might not have read it there could enjoy it here, especially the fathers.
So my son and I had went along with my wife shopping and instead of going with her into the department store I decided that I would take my son to the much more manly Best Buy. I love electronics and I thought my son would sit in his stroller so I could browse around the place and look at all of the cool new gadgets.
I neglected to take into account two things:
- Kids Have to Touch Things
- Bed time was closing in on us.
If your kid/kids are like mine no matter how many times you tell him not to touch this or that he has to get that one last touch in. In Best Buy with all this shiny new stuff my son instantly had to start touching.
We like to keep him on a pretty regular bed time routine as well, and if he is awake past bedtime he gets cranky and whinny.
So throw those two things in to the mix and I end up letting my son out of the stroller type on the computer keyboards while I look around at the bluetooth keyboards near him, and give myself a few more minutes to look around and still keep my patience. This lasts about five minutes then he thinks it will be fun to run from daddy and have daddy chase him around the store.
Before I could catch up to him to put him back into the stroller, and get out of there he found the TV section…
He stops and looks back at me and points at the TV and says “Booby Daddy.” At that moment I know exactly what my son is trying to tell me. He is trying to tell me he wants to watch a movie. That is not the way it came out. So, I embarrassed at this point, go and pick my son up wondering what everyone is thinking, and louder than usual say no son we will watch a MOVIE when we get home.
My wife loved the story when I shared it her when we met up after the indecent. She laughs at it all the time.
So we have been working on the “M” sound to avoid any future embarrassment at Best Buy

Has your kid/kids ever embarrassed you in public?

Haha! That’s hilarious! I really embarrassed my dad when I was younger!
Poor dad
Ha! Nice! I don’t have kiddos but I’m pretty sure I’ll be the one doing the embarrassing when I do have some.
It is always nice to reverse it on them. I a cannot wait until my son is teenager so I can pay him back for embarrassing me!
Ha! Love this story. So funny. My son sometimes pulls his shirt up and says “titas” which is Spanish for … well you know. He just turned 4 and he’s out of control.
HA! Why am I not surprised?
That would make me laugh!
Haha…too funny.
My two-year-old daughter went through a phase a month or so ago where, whenever she got mad, she would take off all her clothes … or, try to blow snot on everything (doors, carpet, people, etc.) … or both. Fortunately, it seems that she is about out of that phase and she mostly ‘got mad’ at home…except for that one time at church
That is hilarious!
My kids do stuff like that all the time. Usually it involves yelling “Daddy needs to go pee pee (or poo poo)?!” When I get up to use the restroom at a restaurant.
Funny. I am sure that I have that in my future as well.
haha… makes me wanna go see a bo…. I mean movie.
Ha Ha

Should have been there!
We were traveling at Christmastime one year when my daughter was about 3 years old. We decided to stop at Shoney’s for breakfast as we had started our day very early and it was around 8 a.m. now. We had made a passing remark as we pulled into the parking lot that Emily (our daughter) would eat free from the breakfast bar.
We are seated, get Emily in her booster chair, my wife goes off to the bathroom and I step over to the breakfast bar to check out what they have to offer. Just then, at the top of her lungs, my daughter begins to sing a little song she has written for the occasion that goes something like this, “Free, Free. I eat free!” Needless to say I quickly made my way back to the table to quiet our little soloist. When my wife returned to the table, she was glad she missed out on the debut.
Kids are funny!
Funny stuff.
They sure are!
Thanks for stopping by Randy!
Haha! That is awesome. I did a “NSFW” post on another blog once to see how it would drive traffic. Worked a little bit.
He doesn’t have an uncle Mitch, does he?
