Joe: So what've you two been doing today? Danae: Hangin' out with dopey Jeffrey. Joe: Ok... what makes him dopey? Danae: Details or broad strokes? Joe: Broad strokes, please. Danae: He might have started the robot apocalypse. Joe: Ah... that was going to be my second guess! Lucy: I don't think he believed you. Danae: Yeah... telling adults the truth seems to throw them off.

Wait, wait…I want to know the details (in detail!), of why she thinks he’s dopey!…..I think she’s saying he’s dopey because she really thinks he’s cute…

And what is that truth stuff anyway? Like ‘facts’ which is ignored by fundamentalists and their pals, truth gets in the way of normal healthy lies…..

Dad’s first guess of course would be that Jeffrey is a boy—therefore dopey, and many other negative things as well. Robots taking over the world seems a steep price to pay for the pleasure of Danae being essentially ignored by Jeffrey. Time for Lars to come to the rescue. Of course he may not care.

A birth “DEFECT”? A cleft palate is a birth defect. Is blond hair a birth defect too?

My grandmother preached: " Always tell the truth – No one’s going to believe it ! " She was right. As a teenager, I always told my parents the truth ( sometimes edited or abridged ) but they never believed me. Had a lot of fun, that way !
