Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for June 24, 2012
Transcript:
Dad: Oh, yuck. Petey: What? Dad: There's a green, clown-shaped marshmallow in my cereal. Petey: It's Alice. Dad: There's another one! What's Alice? Petey: She's spreading her dire influence. She leaves toys everywhere - her stuff seeps inexorably into every corner of the house. Blocks, stuffed animals, tiny doll shoes, creeping into every nook and cranny, overwhelming all that are not Alice. Dad: That's just silly. Petey: Marshmallows migrating into your cereal can mean only one thing - Mom: We're out of orange juice. Have one of Alice's juice boxes. Dad: NO. Petey: She's in the food chain. We're doomed.

I want to meet the third grader that knows what inexorably means, how to spell it and how to pronounce it. I guarantee a failure on all three!
