Some Guy,

It's about the journey, not the destination.

You can have dessert after you've cleaned your plate.

Cleaning your plate makes Mom feel appreciated.

I hate "Are we there yet?" and it's cousin "Are we halfway there?"

And any question that starts with the phrase "Would you mind..." is code for "You're going to hate this, but I'm going to emotionally blackmail you into doing it anyway."

Man, emotional blackmail is a great way of putting it.

Yes, Rob, I can.

In fact, I did so this morning.

You're welcome.

How about, "I think this milk is bad, will you taste it for me?"

Ricky Anderson 96p · 711 weeks ago

Sorry, Daniel, I can't do that.

If I did, I might yack, and milk with yack in it is definitely bad.

Rob doesn't yack, so you might ask him.

"Are you going to get dressed today?"

It's summer, I'm unemployed and I like my pajamas. Give me a break.

Well, if you've got nothing to do, start writing more guest posts, Bum!

"When are you going to shave?"

Okay, I guess it's not THAT frequently asked. But every once in a while somebody asks me that.

When ARE you going to shave?

When they find a good way for me to control the growth of my facial hair without daily maintenance, harsh chemicals or medical procedures involving lasers and/or permanent removal (I like to keep my options open). Basically, I'm waiting for an on/off switch for hair growth. And even then I don't think I'd actually want to shave. What's wrong with facial hair, people? NOTHING, that's what.

When my wife was a baby, she would freak out whenever someone with facial hair was near. Made it interesting for one of her bearded uncles. Also made Santa visits a bit hairy.

The question for girls should be "why are you so pretty" not "handsome" but that's a detail :)

I can be both pretty and handsome if I want to. My blog, my rules!

Why do you stay with AT&T?
How many of those have you eaten?
How did you learn how to use the Internet?

My grandmother thinks I made the Internet. I'm the family's Al Gore.

And the answer to your second question is 4; assuming you're referring to the cinnamon rolls work provided today.

The #1 FAQ at my house is courtesy of my 16 YO son: What are we doing tomorrow? Actually, he used to ask that daily when we homeschooled. Now that he's in public school, the question has been modified to What are you guys doing tomorrow? Every day. OCD runs in my family.

Can you give the kids a bath?
When are you going to close that deal?
Did you just fart?
Can we watch another episode of Friday Night Lights?

Yes, I can. Although that might be weird.

We'll close the deal when the P&L statements are completed.

Don't ask; don't tell.

No. That show is highly overrated. Tyler Stanton and I have had words over this. Don't get me started.

Why do your feet smell so bad?

Can I change the channel?

Can you bring me some toilet paper?

Because I don't wash them. I just let them 'breath'.

Sure. You're bigger than me. You can do what you want.

I can, but we need to talk about boundaries. You should let me know you're in my house before you destroy my porcelain throne.
