Don't Sell His Shorts

Daring Fireball: Like a Sponge, in which John Gruber tries out for Metropolitan Diary:

The boy looks angry: teeth clenched, brow furrowed. He is muttering something about a broken car that won’t start. I assume it has something to do with a toy; later, my wife informs me that he was re-imagining today’s episode of Sesame Street, wherein Oscar the Grouch couldn’t get his jalopy to start.

“You really look upset,” I tell him.

“No, I’m pissed,” he says.

Somehow, I doubt he learned that word from Oscar.


Kids say the darndest things.
