Misapplication of logic

Girl counting money:
One mun. Two muns. Three muns. Four muns!

Interpretation:
Money, clearly, is the diminutive of the correct term, mun.
Therefore, the correct plural form is muns.

Very logical.

Speaking of which:

After a recent running-race thing at school* Boy bemoaned the fact that he never wins.

But I win all the flying races, Mummy!




*I forgot to go and didn't even have the decency to feel bad when Boy asked whether I'd seen him run.

Backseat philosopher

(Overheard when driving recently.)

Yes. Sometimes life is annoying.
You just have to deal with it.
[pause, as though listening to a response]
You know, it's just like when you stick three pieces of paper together in a clump.

I think there's something there for everyone.

Once I caught a fish alive

Girl has learnt a thing or two from Boy.

Girl: Mummy, you in the water. I'm gonna fish ya! Swim! Swim!
Daddy: Is Mummy a good fish?
Girl: No. She's a dead fish. 'Cos I'm gonna eat fishies!

Happily, I'm still whole and live.
