This one had me laughing so hard (thinking of something similar in my past) that
I had to post it right away).
.
The weird open-mouthed kinda 'duck-faces' near the bottom are Internet memes
for hilarious laughter.

1. Kids do mimic what they hear. True story:
Husband and I were on a road trip with our then 2-year-old. We were passing a large reservoir. Husband says to daughter, "Look at the big dam!" The response from the car seat in the back: "The big dam what, daddy?" Needless to say we were momentarily stunned, and then enjoyed a good laugh. :)

3. LOL, that reminds me of my daughter when she was younger. We have a near by picnic area around a
local dam. She would always ask if we could "picnic at the darn?" She would NEVER say dam.:rofl:

5. Reminds me of a time my kid mimiced something mom said
She was trying to pull out of a store onto a very busy street. She edged out into the street, noticed an oncoming car and said "OH SHIT!" at the top of her lungs. Justin, our son, who was about 7 at the time, then asked, "Mommy, what does oh shit mean?" He really wanted to know. She said it nearly brought her to tears because she was laughing so hard. She then just parked, waited, and explained it to him. They both got home safe and sound and Justin and Deb actually learned something. Debbie learned not to say "Oh shit" in front of the kid, and Justin learned numerous things, such as the parents ain't perfect.
Her and I have been broken up for a number of years, but we still laugh over that incident.

7. This reminds me of something that happened to me a few years back.
I was in charge of a crew that was replacing and upgrading the HVAC systems in a school library while school was in session. From what I could tell, the children I saw were from 1st to 3rd graders. I had gone out to the truck for something and when I returned to the library, I saw something seriously wrong with one of the systems we had just installed. I exclaimed, perhaps too loudly, "Oh shit!" I immediately realized my faux pas and sheepishly looked at the librarian apologetically. She gave me a stern look and said two words I will never forget. "library voice!"

11. YoungerGreenSon started calling my father (Jack) Jack-ass because he'd
heard it in a Tony Hawk video game.

Had to explain to him reallly quickly that it wasn't considered a nice thing to say. LOL
