Real-life Outnumbered

Outnumbered shows us how funny kids can be. What real-life examples are there?

I thought about this after talking to a pair of 7 year-olds. Whe we were talking about names, they told me that unfortunately a kid in their class was called 'Fuc'. They said how bad this must be for him, and perhaps he could change his name to something less bad; they helpfully offered examples including 'Fark', Fukkie' or 'Professor Fuc'. It was hilarious!

My kids have never said anything funny in the 12 years they've been on the planet. Frankly, I'm thinking of cutting the unamusing little brats out of my will unless they start delivering the comedy gold pretty damn soon.

My daughter once got Gandalf and Gandi mixed up.

It wasnt long ago either. She's applying for medical school next year - we're doomed!

That would not surprise me.

"NONE SHALL PASS!! But if you really want to, you can, I won't stop you."

Not as catchy.

My kids are hysterical and I'm very thankful for it. And we're very outnumbered at our house, 4 against 2.

I think it was Joss Stone who did a whole interview on radio or TV or something talking about "Bob Gandalf".

Give us your f**king rings!

Errr

Heavy snow in my area around 2 years ago led to the office I was working at being closed. So I thought great, a day off, I headed to get a paper from the papershop. I walked past the Primary school where parents were taking there children to school. Over the road I saw a brat continuously throwing snowballs at his Mum, she objected to this and told him. Then on the otherside, there was this little girl and her Mum looking at this incident. The mum asked 'What's that boy called' the little girl replied 'His names Josh. He's always talking about vaginas'
