None of your earwax.

Stop snuffing out my Flames of Youth!

How did you manage to be so incredibly annoying Mama?

(During online drivers ed): Speedometer, doo dooo doo doo do...Speedometer, doo do do do...

You're too enthusiastic Mama. You have to read the mood. Sometimes it's OK to be enthusiastic, other times you need to just chill.

You're so great Mama. I acknowledge your greatness.

Mama: What's so funny? 
J: None of your earwax.

Brainwash

Mama: Is there anything you are feeling grateful for today?
Julian: I'm grateful to have something to be grateful for, I'm grateful to be able to be grateful, and I'm grateful that somebody wants to know what I'm grateful for.

Which superpower would your rather have, Baba? Teleportation or Telekinesis? Pre-cognition or Telepathy? Telepathy could be interesting--you could learn other people's skills, learn languages...  Would you rather be able to manipulate gravity or electromagnetic fields? I find Intangibility very interesting...

I respectfully disagree with that notion.

Isn't childhood just a time for parents to brainwash their kids with their own beliefs?

I'm trying to get my breakfast, but I have to go through the gauntlet of Mama.
