He started to describe this paper meche crawfish that he made in art class and I asked him if he was satisfied with his work that he put into this little project and he says to me;
Day, my crawfish pawns all the other ones that the other kids made.
I laughed my ass off... he is growing into such a great little nerd, and he makes me sooo proud!

too bad he didn't say "prawns"

edit: damnit - i guess i should have read the whole threads before posting.

can we say:

All aboard the Failboat?
Choo choo...

indeed.

oh the ironing. it's delicious

You can't quote your own delicious ironing. That's for the rest of us to laugh at you about.

What the fuck are you talking about?

Jedi says all aboard the failboat, calling for a choo choo which is clearly a fail in itself since choo choo's are expressly reserved for trains and not boats.

uhohs calls him out on this.

Jedi then proceeds to talk about how delicious that irony is.

I then point out that he has lost that right and it is the distinct right and duty of ATOT to point out how much fail his post has.

It's a joke. Calm down.

Even tugboats/steamboats?

I've gotten into debates with my two oldest boys (14 and 11) on how it's pronounced.

I say "owned", they say "poned". In fact, I think I had a thread about it here a few months ago.

OP: Tell him if he wants to be even cooler he should speak in binary.

Then how will you know when someone is trying to say "pwned"?

No.
If your son is going to grow up to be a loser, at least don't let him fail at failure.
This coming from someone who says "pones".

Actually, yes, it is pronounced "pones".
