Some Mothers Do Have 'em

If that offends them they should grow up.

We found an amazing spot to hide: a giant bush was hollow on the inside, with a little stump right in the center on which to sit, like a little room. It was the sort of magical place that seems to only exist in children's books.

That's cool. I had a similar place in the swamp behind my mother's house when I was a kid.

Ah yes...the dreaded New England Saber-Toothed Wooly Duck. It's the bane of my existence and I WILL have it.

Be careful! They're dethpicable!

What is the one episode from your childhood that people like to talk about it? It could be your getting stuck or lost, or doing something really silly etc

Well when I was in kindergarten I accidentally stained my pants with ink. It was a pretty big dark blue stain on my light-blue/white striped pants, so I quickly devised a solution to the problem by cutting out said stain with a scissor.
My mom wasn't too happy about it, so I advised my mom that she could make a pocket out of it.

Oh and the time I bought illegal fireworks from a classmate in highschool...
I had outfitted a plastic model airplane with small rockets, but my dad found out and I was grounded for a week, and I didn't get to test it!

I guess that would be the time my Dad was driving on a narrow mountain road, I was about 10, the road was icy and we slid off the edge of the road right down a cliff! We were all ok fortunately but good thing we were wearing seatbelts!

Personally I would have just asked for the key to the padlock, but hey, if there's not much work on then let them have their fun.

Firies??? That's insulting.

????

How is it insulting? It is social acceptable Australian slang, just like ambo (ambulance driver) is.

(when I Googled the word 'firies' I only came up with Australian sites so it seems that the shortening is exclusively Australian)

I am not a firey. I'm a firefighter...it wussifies it in my opinion!!
