A friend pointed me at this link. Clever, fun. Reminds me of my son's high school choir.

Those who don't mind watching vids, take a peek at this. It's got this adorable little girl in it, doing an adorable little girl thing. You'll be all "awwww" and you'll laugh until you wet yourself, I'm sure.

Then read my rant below.

So here's my rant: the mom made her repeat it for the camera, then play-acted shock and you could see the confusion on the kid's face. Mixed messages. Mom had already heard this, whipped out the camera and was pretending to be disapproving while laughing. Then Mom, after making the kid perform repeatedly, corrected her. "It's not a nice word."

'Scuze me. But "butt" is no more nice than "ass." When I was growing up, if I said "butt" my mom would've washed out my mouth. We spoke of fannies, behinds, po-pos and derierres if we had to speak of the part of our anatomy upon which we sat. And I'm sure that reaching further back, even some of those words were forbidden.

Look, it's simply a fleshy part of the body that everyone has. Well, everyone except those caught in freak ass-excising accidents, or those poor unfortunates who were born with a sort of ass-free deformity. Oh, and me. I lost my ass. Lost my funbags, too, but that's another story, and I digress. Where was I? Oh. Yes. Ass. Why, some people are nothing but enormous walking asses! Or, at least, the hole part of it. I see no reason for Mom to have confused and corrected her kid.

Just celebrate her maturity, fuck sake. She got it right the first time. If a monster comes in, you kick his ass 'fore he kicks yours. I mean, dur.
