"The bread you made tastes like the old people in the doctor's waiting room smell."

Still feeling a bit down.

Yes. Very much.

They come into the bedroom at the crack of dawn, I pretend I'm still asleep. So they leave, close the door... then knock on it. Which results in both me and my partner giggling and shushing each other to not give away that we were already awake.

“Quack” ended up being “cock”. Very clearly articulated. Every bird he sees is a “COCK!” It made our lakeside vacation interesting.

I mean, if the birds are males...

My three year old daughter was with my wife in the back of the car playing pretend and suddenly my daughter told my wife to “die”. My daughter has never used that word before so we were very confused how to react to that. We told her it is a bad word and she should not ask others to “die” which made my daughter use it more.

It’s a simple word that’s easy to say. When my son was just picking up words, he heard us say “the batteries are about to die” and he copied it immediately. Then all night, it was “die die die die die”

Used the word "kakáč" (shitter) instead of "kartáč" (brush).
