Me (as I set the table): "Lil dude, dinner's ready."
Sippy Cup: "Ugh. I hate dinner."
Me: "Oh that's nice. I'm afraid to ask why..."
Sippy Cup: "Because I eat. And then my belly is full. But then it starts making noises again.
So I have to eat again. And again. And again."
So I have to eat again. And again. And again."
Me (as I serve his dinner): "So, if I'm understanding this correctly,
you would prefer to eat only once a day?"
you would prefer to eat only once a day?"
Sippy Cup: "Yeah! That's easier! And faster!"
Me: "So, you plan to completely re-wire the human need for constant replenishment?"
Sippy Cup: "What?! I just want to eat one time!"
Me: "Ok, you can start tomorrow if you'd like."
Sippy Cup: "How about I start right now?"
Me: "How about you sit on time-out before you eat your dinner?"
Sippy Cup (rubbing his stomach): "Yummy! This looks good! I like rice!"
