“Hey Mom? Did you know there’s a character on Word Girl named Captain Huggy Face?”
“Really?”
“He’s a monkey.”
“That’s sort of a great name. Can I call you Captain Huggy Bottom?”
“Um... No thanks, Mom... Just call me Star Wars Bob.”

This transition from Mama to Mom still has my head doing the Linda Blair head-spin. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteStar Wars Bob. Didn't I have a drink with that guy in 1983?
ReplyDeleteI want to tell Bob that we saw Darth Vader and some Red Guy at the Burbank Car Show on Saturday. I'm just not sure if that would make me cool or super not cool.
ReplyDeleteI'd object to Captain Huggy Bottom too :) Star Wars Bob is way cooler!
ReplyDeleteI particularly like the very polite way in which he declined. "Um, no thanks Mom." Bob has very good manners. I like that in an SWB.
ReplyDeleteHe's already thinking ahead to his LARPER and screen name.
ReplyDeleteWhat's a LARPER? At least I know what a knadele is. And I'm afraid I have to agree re: Star Wars Bob being a cooler name than Captain Huggy Bottom.
ReplyDeleteCan I call you Captain Huggy Bottom?
ReplyDeleteLive Action Role Playing = LARP
ReplyDeleteMy name's Bob, but I've never had the honor of being addressed as "Star Wars Bob". At risk of showing both my age and my ineptitude for grasping at trendy phrases just *after* they're not so trendy (e.g. I didn't get Blondie until after they broke up) ... "You're kid rocks." :)
ReplyDeleteWe call Jonathan stinky butt. Just saying. :-)
