am i less mature than a 7 year old?
today i was home having dinner with the folks and the neighbours were over, and they brought their seven year old son, Harmon.
so Harmon and I are chilling out and watching some Looney Toones, while the folks are talking politics and economy. we're watching this episode where Sylvester is trying to get Tweety, but they're in Venice and he can't get across the river-roads they have there. so he falls into the river and is eaten by a big shark. i start laughing, and then this kid looks up at me and says, "That's totally stupid, there aren't any sharks in Venice. Everyone knows that." ruined it all for me :( |

I was reading The Little Prince last night:
..Grown-ups like numbers. When you tell them about a new friend, they never ask questions about what really matters. They never ask: "What does his voice sound like?" "What games does he like best?" "does he collect butterflies?" They ask: "How old is he?" "How many brothers does he have?" "How much does he weigh?" "How much money does his father make?" Only then do they think they know him. If you tell grown-ups, "I saw a beautiful red brick house, with garaniums at the windows, and doves on the roof...," they won't be able to imagine such a house. You have to tell them, "I saw a house worth a hundred thousand francs. Then they would exclaim, "What a pretty house!"...Thats the way they are. You must not hold it against them. Children should be very understanding of grown-ups. This passage has been stuck in my head for a long time. i find it profound. |

i hate it when kids ruin things with their logic. LOGIC DOES NOT APPLY TO ME!!!!!!!! i know someone who is very smart, too smart you might say, and when he was in grade 10, he went to a math competition. he said there were kids there from Russia that were child geniuses they were in grade 4!!!. they would have the anwser before the question was even finished being read. they did all this crazy calculus in their heads!!! he said it was pure madness!!! |
