Yes, that is where we're headed, I'm sure.

So during the half hour or so before bedtime, the Zweeble, Scott and I watch TV. We usually watch something more aimed at grown-ups, but relatively kid-proof (no Law and Order SVU, for example). Usually it's the Daily Show. Now, this means we're watching Comedy Central, which has lent itself to hilarity in the past.

Well.

There is a business called Adam and Eve, which sells adult-oriented paraphanalia. It runs ads on Comedy Central. They're actually pretty tame, just the name and various articles of clothing tossed through the air. Some giggles, restrained whoops, and a sexy-voice voiceover. No actual people anywhere in the ad.

Tonight we were watching Scrubs. The Adam and Eve ad appears.

Zweeble: Mommy, why dey takin dere clothes off?

(Daddy giggles. Mommy considers answers.)

Mommy: Well, it's the end of the day, they want to be comfortable.

At this point, the Zweeble starts naming clothes as they cross the screen.

Zweeble: Belt, shoooes, shiiiirt, bra!

(Mommy and Daddy are cracked up.)

Later, on Scrubs, one character says, cheerfully, to another, "Burn in hell!"

Zweeble looks at Mommy, smiling. "Burn in hell, Mommy!"

Scott cracks up. Zweeble looks at Daddy, bounces on the couch, and chirps, "Burn in hell, Daddy, burn in hell!"

I don't know if you are a fan of Kevin Smith, but in one of his 'Conversations with Kevin Smith' shows, he tells the story of when his little girl first learned the word 'shit'. You're story above reminded me of this one:

She was in the car with him and his wife and started out with all the ways you can say shit. "Mommy Shit!" "Daddy Shit!" "Cow Shit!" "Car Shit!" "Road Shit!" Basically, tack the word shit onto any other word she's already learned.

They laughed and were all, "Yes honey! Shit!" Then they told her what shit was. For some reason, she has never said it since.

I am a big Kevin Smith fan. I had not heard that story, though given how funny the boy finds the word "poop," I don't know if that strategy would work for us ...
