biggest mistake
grabbed lunch today with jimmy knuckles at turtle tower. to our immediate left was a quaint family comprising mom and three little kiddies. i’m surmising they were all sisters. anyway, i couldn’t help but overhear bits and pieces of the conversation. imagine what this little girl’s voice sounds like (sweet, tiny, precocious, confident), saying these exact things.
“…you don’t deserve my love, i’m too good for you…”
“…well it’s just like an IP address right?…”
“…mom, what’s the biggest mistake you ever made in your life?…”
i have no idea what the contexts were but my jaw dropped at these three soundbites. so cute and charming. kids. they say the darndest things.
ps – i’m not a kinder stalker but every once in awhile you run into some magical ones

Man on a plane to China held his kid up to his face and went “Don’t scream like a bitch.”

And she maintained the same expression throughout the entire meal…by deduction she’s an android The mother had offed the real child and used this thing to allay suspicions.
