Irony

Man, does Peanut Head look crazy in this picture or what?

You don't even know the half of it, let me tell you. It's why we get along so great. 

We like to use our craziness to teach our girls meaningful lessons. Yeah, that's it. Today, the lesson was about irony.

Peanut Head has a thing for shirts with jokes and witty blabbity sayings on them. Shirts that give you a peek into the scary side of his psyche. Like this one.

He came out wearing this one today and Zoe Bug picked up on it right away. She read it, processed it, and then didn't miss a beat when she let out a sarcastic "Ha!" Then she backed that up with "Dad, you should take the advice on your shirt because you're always messing that one up."

At which point I dropped to the floor, laughing hysterically. Peanut Head somehow kept from laughing and was able to put an indignant expression on his face. Yes, I've said it before and I'll say it again, he's a man of many talents.

Of course in this case, his talent is the ability to go from zero to Man, You Should Shut Up Now, in zero point six seconds. Not that I should talk or anything. I actually have an Olympic medal in sticking my foot in my mouth. I'm just saying.

This memory is now one that I will hold forever close to my heart. And relive again, and again, and again. Bwah-ha-ha-ha!
