Bloated Faces and Pesky Knees

Everything I say is automatically the most hilarious thing to ever be spoken.

English, Spanish, it doesn’t matter.

In fact, some of the kids think they need to repeat me to remind me exactly how funny I am.

Copy cats.

“Run, don’t stop!” I yell from my position in the field. “The bases are loaded!”

“Fun, boat mop! De faces her bloated!” he screams, jumping up and down on 3rd base.

I roll my eyes. “You’re out!”

“More bout!”

I put my hands on my hips. “You’re testing me,”

“More pesky knee,” he giggles.

Ah yes, the humorous English language.
