      When I saw someone comment something like “That is an aggressively country child.” I laughed so hard lol

      We reference this all the time now. It’s a permanent memory artifact. XD

        LOL, indeed. I grew up in Oklahoma so I recognize that twang. :P I worked for years to get rid of my southern accent.

          Haha I have folks there! Lived there for a bit too! Between Okie and Cali, I think now I subconsciously adjust my twang to adapt to my surroundings. 😂

            Heh, I do to a little bit, but starting in high school I was just actively correcting my twang hard until I just had like a generic American accent. Somehow from that effort I’ve picked up localisms from all over the US (I have moved a lot, but that was years later), like I use ‘soda’ instead of ‘coke’. Nowadays you’d never be able to tell unless I was drunk as shit, which I don’t do more than once every few years at best, cause even without the accent I don’t talk like an Okie anymore.

    My beagle was running around the yard and his big ol ears were flapping around. My goldendoodle just sat there while the beagle ran circles around her as fast as he could.

      One time I was out walking and as I turned a corner a pug was running at me full speed, which is a sight to behold - every part of their face and body seems to be moving in a different direction at once. I was still doubled over laughing when the owner walked past me and she gave me a dirty look lol.

        There are 2 types of pug owners:

        • My precious baby is perfect and can do no wrong.

        • You’re lucky I love you you ugly little shit.

    This was like 15 years ago, but there was a video by Videogamedunky on YouTube where he prank called places.

    I was laughing so hard in my bed at night that I was genuinely wondering if I’d gone crazy.

    Not sure why I found it so funny at the time. Maybe I was a bit tired too.

    My partner is overly anxious about our child safety often worrying about things to an unhealthy extent. When sitting the infant up their head moved “too quickly” making my partner worry. After having to say multiple times the child is obviously fine, the child stood up and starts slamming their head into the bed, thinking it’s a game. They’d stand up and jump backwards onto the soft bed. Then sit up and slam their head forward. Just fun rough play at this age. I belly laughed harder than I have in a least two years.

    After frequently “getting in trouble” over minor things like this, it just made me lose it that my child did the exact action my partner worried so much about but 30x more forceful because they thought it was funny. Hahaha! Infants are actually hilarious and make the first year of pain worth it.

    Just now I hugged my child and said say daddy 叫爸爸 they then build up such a forceful “baba” that it takes them 10 seconds before they release their lips like a sneeze that makes you freeze.

    Yesterday they also got upset to the point of crying that I wouldn’t let them have their infant scissors but they finally got to them when I wasn’t looking. Then when I caught them, instead of crying again they played it off smoothly by acting like they picked them up to give them to me lol

    Maybe someone will enjoy this as much as I did but this news story about a bear sighting… But I don’t want to say why. I want the nonsense to wash over you as it did me the first time I saw it.

    I have another too, this tiny frog, fiercely squeaking it’s battle cry with all all it’s might. It never fails to remind me of how Nibbler on Futurama looked cute but was actually a powerful race of creatures.
