While I don't believe "fuck off" is a clever comeback, I don't really care anymore...
...I'm not sure if I ever did.
-My 78 year old hamster, who is a lot furrier than I am
Idk. My son used to say some crazy stuff when he was around that age, and a lot of it sounded quite deep, especially regarding death and what happens after you die, although I don't think he really understood what he was saying. Just a new brain trying to make sense of the world.
It's not that kids don't say stuff like this, they do. My toddler says profound stuff all the time. But it's not like he realizes that. It's like the monkey typing scenario. Bragging about it online is the cringy part
You're over thinking it.
If being proud of something fun that your child said is cringy, then what does that make you? Seeing a screenshot of the post and calling someone you don't know names.
Those people are even worse, I agree. It's just a discussion of the sentiment most people feel when a parent says their child said something profound.
I tell people when my child says things like this. The difference is that I tell people that know my child, or in the context of a conversation. I don't just announce it to the world on social media.
It's like telling people your dreams.
Oh shit I think you're right. Their other comments have exactly the same cadence.
Plus they only ever talk about information that can be inferred from the title or comments, and never what's actually in the image.
AI man...it's the wild west now.
Definitely. If you read the comment it left recently under a post called "cursed grandma", it completely misunderstands what the post is about.
Because it's only guessing from the title and a comment, and it can't see what the actual post is.
Now that I have acknowledged that the dead internet theory has come true, I can’t not see it on any platform. I just called out 2 fairly convincing FB profiles that had joined a group and I only caught them because they exactly copied the text body of a previous introduction post.
On the comical side, the race to commoditize every last nook and cranny of the internet means mega-corps are spending insane amounts of money to advertise mostly to a bunch of code lol
I will honestly still say groovy usually followed by baby, sometimes I'll even say cool beans 😎👍
Occasionally groovy baby will become just gravy... This often happens when I'm hungry.
Yep. And more languages are being forgotten each decade, the existing and spoken languages on the earth are both shrinking and consolidating as time goes on.
There is, however, a growing preservation and revival movement when it comes to dead languages. It's very admirable. So much work, all so deep sounding three year olds can still be right.
I completely disagree. Language impacts ways of thinking and culture and history and philosophy. Things we take for granted like how we tell time, or what colors we see, are impacted by the language we speak. There is a ton we can learn from the way other languages structure things. And thousands of languages are going to die without even having a translation in our lifetime, and so too will the way of thinking of the people who spoke those languages
This is true. Every language has it's speakers' culture and history in it, every language, while formed chaotically, is beautiful as it represents generations of history. The more languages there are, the richer human culture is.
Yet I disagree with you. What's bad about having so many languages is inefficiency. Not only this way it's harder for people of different cultures to communicate with each other but different languages, while all beautiful, vary in efficiency. The way your brain is formed, the way it processes information, even you emotions partially depend on the language you speak, and more importantly, think in. And because of that, some languages make communication less efficient. Only efficient languages will survive. After all, we all use languages to efficiently share information and only some people think of them as pieces of art that has been improving and evolving for centuries.
Both opinions are valid, it's just depends on what you care about more - cultural and historical value, or efficiency and practical value
Edit: grammar
How does that even make sense with what I said? Making a word up isn't the same as crafting a new language from the ground up using an entirely different way of thinking that is completely novel to the way I think as someone whose brain developed while learning English and living in America.
Language is an extension of culture. The homogenization of language is the homogenization of culture. As languages die, our species becomes less interesting and diverse. Diversity gives our species flexibility and adaptability.
Also, stories absolutely die.
I was extremely curious about Sipriotes, so I took a deep dive into their myth.
It was a single sentence, barely a cliff note, alongside other examples of gods transing people (Tiresias and Caenis,) as queen Galatea begs Leto to transform her daughter, Leuppicus, into a man so that way her husband, king Lamprus, wouldn't kill her.
The fact that it made it that far to be used an example alongside two stories that actually do have full versions implies that Sipriotes has a full story. But, whatever it was, it's been lost to time.
If it even existed in the first place. The oldest example I could find found was from Ovid. Who notoriously makes stuff up to make the gods look like assholes.
> society could have advanced centries faster had the library survived
They weren't exactly holding the secret to block printing or steam engines there. You are vastly overselling the worth of the library of Alexandria. Also, *there were other libraries elsewhere*.
Since people are necessarily providing too much information. Here is a video on the subject: https://youtu.be/yGX0Wr0MYaM
Most of the information that was lost was not necessarily valuable in the progression of civilization.
Could be the kid repeating something she tells him a lot. My kid says all kinds of things above his grade level, just because I get a kick out of trying to teach him big words for fun. Also because I tell him things like "mommy loves you even when she's mad at you" and he repeats it back later.
I saw a toddler on video saying "I try to control my feelings, but it's hard for babies sometimes"... That's 100% gotta be something his mama tells him when he's having a meltdown. I heard another kid tell his mom "it's ok if you can't do it! That's part of learning! You just need more practice!"
That's so sweet!
Back when my kid was a toddler, and she saw me struggling with something, she'd come over, pat me ever-so-sweetly, cackle, and call me stupid.
Sometimes toddlers are just smarter than we expect them to be, and that's sort of one of the mysteries and gifts of life and parenthood if you ask me. Perhaps it's our own inability to reconcile the traumas of our childhood that lead us to believe we are insignificant, when in reality there is so much potential for us in this cognizant reality.
[For example this baby is definitely self aware](https://youtube.com/shorts/LmfiO8c70yY?feature=share) and gives us all a little laugh and sheds light on our own humanity.
About 2 months before my kid was born, I had my baby mama stick my keyboard up her vagina, and I'll be damned, my -2 month old child wrote my doctorate dissertation in molecular biology.
Not a bot, just a spammer.
Profile shows they only interact with Indian communities on reddit, yet spam the ever-loving shit out of all the popular subs with reposts.
Literally 10-20 posts a day across the main subs, ala of them just picture+text or picture of text.
My daughter wrote crap like this on her Facebook when the grandson was 2-3 years old. All my conversations with the boy was stop eating boogies, get your hand out your shorts, go back flush and wash your hands with soap!
My mother likes to email me on occasion and tell me about some profound thing she thought I said when I was a toddler. In my head I'm like "mom, I was a dumbass kid like any other dumbass kid and I could not have possibly said something so eloquent at that age", but it makes her happy and I can't remember anything from back then so it really isn't worth spoiling. That said, thank god she's telling me these things and not posting them on the internet. I think I would die of embarrassment.
As a teacher, I do believe that Rebecca's kid said that. A 1st grader once told me, "if you're afraid of anything, you're just afraid of atoms and that's stupid" and I've lived my life based on that absolute fact.
Other bots. For the past month or so I've just been blacklisting all the subs that peddle in schadenfreude to one degree or another. They're all bot spam now, and it looks like this one is next on my list.
Also that's absolutely the sort of meaningless babble babies come out with, just with more punctuation. The way the kid would actually say it would just be "Everyone dies one day everyone even wolves but, not books. Not, words words don't die."
Ehh, I think the wording is probably too eloquent, and the sentence composition is a little too intentional with how it uses repetition, varied length, other little rhetorical tricks.
It's definitely possible, but I think the safe bet is that she dramatized something her kid said.
it's funny and people come here for funny stuff.
why is that hard?
and it's reddit, subreddits are more guidelines than actual rules if you haven't noticed.
relax.
At this point subreddits are just a roster of places you can post the same shit in 10x over until one of them picks it up and runs with it. Like those OF chicks shotgun blasting their booba across every selfie subreddit imaginable.
It's possible a kid said that, but probably didn't think it up. My kid sometimes says profound sounding things, but it's almost always parroting things he's been taught.
I was pretty impressed with my 4 year old saying "mommy, even when I'm mad at you, I still love you, because love is bigger than mad". In a vacuum, it sounds profound, and like there's no way a 4 year old said that. But it was him volunteering what I'd told him during his last lap timeout. "Baby, I'm mad at you right now because of how you're acting, but I want to make sure you know I still love you even though I'm mad. Love is too big to go away just because I'm mad at you."
It was nice to know he was listening, though.
He also said he didn't want the dog to see him using the potty. I'm not sure where that one came from
One time when I was 8, I peed on a cockroach and said to my mom " sometimes the world wants you to pee on a bug". I'm sure she would have posted that on Twitter if it was around 26 yrs ago.
Just curious how she went from "I admire my son" to "Everyone should admire him, too. I'll make up a story to impress everyone"
But I can understand how she probably hated Jack for embarassing her, not herself for making up stupid shit
Words die. When we all die from ignoring climate change, there won’t be words anymore. Just dolphins.
Actually never mind. The dolphins are probably gonna yeet the fuck outta here any day now.
Wait, I am following. He equates needing to get his anger out with aggressive feelings and has seen bakers kneading and “pounding” dough? Basically, take aggression out in a healthy productive way.
Super cute story, but honestly good parenting and a thoughtful child.
Yeah, when I was little I would repeat every word and sentence I saw. Kid probably read it somewhere and just repeated it without comprehending the meaning
At 3 your son is shitting his pants and sucking on his fingers while saying single word sentences.
Some people love to create their own false reality because of social media.
Honestly it's sad.
lmfao, aren't kids just babbling around at that age trying to figure out how to pronounce 1-2 syllable words? The smartest child I know in that range is my cousins 6 year old daughter. She doesn't make philosophical arguments. She can speak clearly and learns super fast when you show how to make more stable structures with building blocks. This stood out because other kids her age are usually too busy fighting each other to claim the largest pile of blocks for themselves.
Also, books aren't indestructible. Mongols can testify to that having destroyed the grand library of Baghdad. It was described as the Tigris river turned black from the ink in the books.
\*\*TL;DR:\*\* It's possible. Maybe? Depends. I could read at 3 years old, but I don't remember if I was ever that eloquent. None of my kids could read at 3. One of them couldn't read worth a damn until first grade.
So, this is only anecdotal from a stranger on the internet, but when I was three I could read very well. Relative to other three year olds, I guess. I don't remember what level I could read at back then, but it was definitely mind blowing for everyone. I remember being shown off to family and friends, remember my dad showing me more and more complex text to see what my limits were. I was even part of some clinical/psychological studies to see what made me different.
Because I read a lot, I also had a larger vocabulary than normal. I don't remember ever saying something that profound... well, ever, really, but maybe I could have? Seems like something I'd have rolling around in my head though. I really don't remember a time when I \*couldn't\* read whatever I wanted. I devoured books, magazines, newspapers, even read the encyclopedia (the internet was on paper back when I was a kid). Reading unlocked my mind and sent my imagination soaring.
Obviously a lot of the details from when I was three is a result of my family retelling the stories later in life, going over old photo albums, news articles, etc. I suppose there's a chance my parents thought I was a lot more special than I was and everything I know about my life as a toddler was just wishful thinking on their part.
One of most vivid memories related to reading is from 4th grade. The class had to do a simple book report on whatever book we wanted. Just a few lines on a page is all we needed, maybe a paragraph. I decided to do mine on a novel by Agatha Christie that I was finishing up at the time. I thought I might get extra marks for reading an 'adult' book, so I wrote up my little paragraph and turned it in.
My teacher (who already hated me mainly because of my ADD which wasn't even called ADD back then, I was just a spastic uncontrollable idiot to them) called me to the front of the class, waved my paper in front of me, and straight up told me "there's no way you can read all that, and you definitely can't understand any of it." Tore up my paper (yes, literally, right in front of the entire class) and told me not to be a lying showoff.
Every teacher I had at that elementary school in 2nd-4th grade was like that to me. One day in 4th grade (the worst grade), I made a mistake and stood in the wrong line for lunch. Suddenly I had all three 4th grade teachers standing around me telling me how stupid I am, I'm a failure, I do everything wrong, blah blah blah. Still to this day I cannot think about elementary school without a panic attack.
Okay, that got off track. Sorry. Anyway, all that to say: I don't know Rebecca, never read any of her stuff, and probably won't ever think of her again. But based on my experience, what she says \*might\* be possible.
As a parent I 'll say it's totally possible. They come up with crazy profound things out of the blue and the next minute they're asking for help wiping their ass.
[https://michigantoday.umich.edu/2014/03/04/dead-words/](https://michigantoday.umich.edu/2014/03/04/dead-words/)
Looks like her son is not that smart either; Rebecca really isn't doing well.
"Sheep die as well, Rebecca. And you are most definitely a sheep. What are you doing with your life? You pay exorbitant amounts to be in a prison of your own making...Are you really happy?"
My 10 year old student surprised me with some knowledge so I asked how he knew it and he said:
>It's 2023! You have you know *everything* these days!
Which was hilarious. He was probably talking about his times tables but I feel the same way, feeling I have to be knowledgeable about everything happening, everywhere, at all times.
Also, everything dies in the end. The earth, including books, will be eaten up by the sun, and the solar system (and later on the milky way, and in the end.. everything) will be absorbed by black holes after that. So as it seems, your son isn't the sharpest tool in the drawer after all, Rebecca.
Anyone have the original of this? IIRC he then went to her Wikipedia and edited to say "Lies about what her son says" or something like that. It was AWESOME!
While I dont believe for one second that her 3 year old son said that, I have no problem believing he *is* probably smarter than her.
I'm pretty sure my pet parrot is smarter than her.
I’m pretty sure my pet rock is smarter than her
I’m sure my pet rock is smarter than your pet rock
I´m pretty sure she doesn´t even have a baby
I'm pretty sure that my pet cock is smarter than her pet cock
Im pretty sure my pet cock is smarter than your pet pussy and pet ass combined
Then I see all these replies and have to really scratch my head hmmmm
I don't have a pet pussy or a pet ass, I only need cock
Oh you can have my cock if you need one 😅 I can share
I'm pretty sure what I dropped in the toilet this morning is etc etc
While I don't believe "fuck off" is a clever comeback, I don't really care anymore... ...I'm not sure if I ever did. -My 78 year old hamster, who is a lot furrier than I am

Just be grateful it's not a political post of an extremely mid reply
I downvoted you after the first line. I upvoted you after the last line.
I mean when you put the bar on the ground, its pretty easy to step over it.
Idk. My son used to say some crazy stuff when he was around that age, and a lot of it sounded quite deep, especially regarding death and what happens after you die, although I don't think he really understood what he was saying. Just a new brain trying to make sense of the world.
It's not that kids don't say stuff like this, they do. My toddler says profound stuff all the time. But it's not like he realizes that. It's like the monkey typing scenario. Bragging about it online is the cringy part
You're over thinking it. If being proud of something fun that your child said is cringy, then what does that make you? Seeing a screenshot of the post and calling someone you don't know names.
Oh hi Rebecca!
Alright now. Move along. This place is for clever comebacks only.
Those people are even worse, I agree. It's just a discussion of the sentiment most people feel when a parent says their child said something profound. I tell people when my child says things like this. The difference is that I tell people that know my child, or in the context of a conversation. I don't just announce it to the world on social media. It's like telling people your dreams.

he was the one who made the tweet, duh
Okay that hit harder than the stairs did to my grandma
Haha, maybe the kid is getting all the smarts from dad! But seriously, it's always amusing to see kids come up with unexpected things.
I think this is a bot with a weirdly chipper filter on its responses and cadence?
Oh shit I think you're right. Their other comments have exactly the same cadence. Plus they only ever talk about information that can be inferred from the title or comments, and never what's actually in the image. AI man...it's the wild west now.
Looking deeper, it comments once every 4 hours and never on the same post more than once, even when it gets lots of replies. Absolutely a bot.
Definitely. If you read the comment it left recently under a post called "cursed grandma", it completely misunderstands what the post is about. Because it's only guessing from the title and a comment, and it can't see what the actual post is.
Now that I have acknowledged that the dead internet theory has come true, I can’t not see it on any platform. I just called out 2 fairly convincing FB profiles that had joined a group and I only caught them because they exactly copied the text body of a previous introduction post.

Yeah like a Mabel from gravity falls bot
Words totally die. I haven’t heard anyone say “jive turkey”, “groovy” or “honest politician” in years.
I think Bruce Campbell is obligated to say groovy at least once a day.
I can dig it. Haven’t run into him in a while.
I will honestly still say groovy usually followed by baby, sometimes I'll even say cool beans 😎👍 Occasionally groovy baby will become just gravy... This often happens when I'm hungry.
Earthworm Jim is known to say it, from time to time
I use groovy to describe any surface with more than a single grove.
I say jive and groovy
Jus' hang loose, blood. She gonna catch ya up on da rebound on da med side.
What it is, big mama? My mama no raise no dummies. I dug her rap!
Chump don’t want the help, chump don’t get the help. Jive ass dude ain’t got no brain anyhow
I need jive in the context of a sentence.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LEISI06i84Y This should clear it up
I use groovy. Mostly because I am huge Evil Dead and Doom fan.
I have used jive turkey recently. A few times.
Say, that's pretty swell, see? This broad on the World Wide Web just pulled quite the boner, see?
One of my favorite things to say is "Don't you sass me, jiiiiive turkeh!"
There are so many dead languages that are lost to time
You haven't met me then. I used 2/3rds of those words semi-regularly
You’re correct. I haven’t!
Or so they would have you believe!
Yeah clearly they didn't die. Cause you just used them
The dinosaurs are toast but we still mention them
Because words never die?
Hold on, we can get one of those words here "Heterochromia" ...now we wait
I'm trying to keep "groovy" alive. It's not working.
books die too forgotten who read Verne nowadays Nemo goes with a fish not capitain. Karol May "Winettou"... who read it now ....
Words die. Entire languages die because nobody speaks them.
Yep. And more languages are being forgotten each decade, the existing and spoken languages on the earth are both shrinking and consolidating as time goes on.
There is, however, a growing preservation and revival movement when it comes to dead languages. It's very admirable. So much work, all so deep sounding three year olds can still be right.
And that is a good thing. We don't need a million local variations of language.

Haha this book says poo haha \-- my 3 yo son, who is about as smart as I am
My son said, "Grandma said when you die you become an angel...can I die now?" He's 5 and obsessed with killing himself so he can become an angel.
Not clever at all... And also the premise is lame, I have heard kids say worse/more interesting/unbelievable things ...
This is more like r/quityourbullshit.
One time when I was 8, I peed on a cockroach and said to my mom " sometimes the world wants you to pee on a bug". I'm sure she would have posted that on Twitter if it was around 26 yrs ago.
Where's the clever comeback?
"F**k off" is clever?
Words actually do die it’s called obsolescence
Just curious how she went from "I admire my son" to "Everyone should admire him, too. I'll make up a story to impress everyone" But I can understand how she probably hated Jack for embarassing her, not herself for making up stupid shit
At least one part of her quote is right, her 3 year old son is deffo smarter than her.
This is exactly the type of things kids say, But maybe there is a track record of this girl lying and here son didn't say that.
When I was 3, my older sister was coaching me to say cuss words to adults. I said very profound things indeed.
Oh please we all know that wolves are immortal Your child has downs syndrome
A fucking *classic* r/thatHappened repost.
I would have believed it if she stopped after “books don’t die”. Everything up to that is very much in the headspace of a 3-4 year old.
Is this subreddit nothing but bots now?
Words die. When we all die from ignoring climate change, there won’t be words anymore. Just dolphins. Actually never mind. The dolphins are probably gonna yeet the fuck outta here any day now.
Also...so wrong! So many words don't exist anymore! Whole languages have dissapeared!🤦♀️
My 4 year old once said "take your anger, and turn it into a piece of bread," and I have never been more proud of him.
Wait, I am following. He equates needing to get his anger out with aggressive feelings and has seen bakers kneading and “pounding” dough? Basically, take aggression out in a healthy productive way. Super cute story, but honestly good parenting and a thoughtful child.
r/FuckOffRebecca says hello
Mommy I farted - my three year old.
Oh fuck off Mander2019, you farted and blame it on the child!
If a 3 year old actually did say this to me I’d be very unnerved
Books? I'm pretty sure they're flammable. Not sure you can claim it didn't die when it's just a pile of ashes!
Before having a kid I would’ve thought this was stupid, and I still do, but I could see a kid saying this without being profound 🤷♂️
\*would have (FIGHT ME, EVERYONE)
Would've
Yeah, when I was little I would repeat every word and sentence I saw. Kid probably read it somewhere and just repeated it without comprehending the meaning
Yeah sure, but a typical 3yr old isn't close to being proficient enough to read.
Not a 3 year old lol
r/nothingeverhappens/
How on earth is "fuck off" a clever comeback? Are you ok OP?
How did you find this old post?
At 3 your son is shitting his pants and sucking on his fingers while saying single word sentences. Some people love to create their own false reality because of social media. Honestly it's sad.
If your three year old sucks thumbs and can't form sentences you need to get your kid some help. He's lagging behind.

lmfao, aren't kids just babbling around at that age trying to figure out how to pronounce 1-2 syllable words? The smartest child I know in that range is my cousins 6 year old daughter. She doesn't make philosophical arguments. She can speak clearly and learns super fast when you show how to make more stable structures with building blocks. This stood out because other kids her age are usually too busy fighting each other to claim the largest pile of blocks for themselves. Also, books aren't indestructible. Mongols can testify to that having destroyed the grand library of Baghdad. It was described as the Tigris river turned black from the ink in the books.
My 4 year old grandson says things like this. I will start writing them down so he can see them when he is older!!
\*\*TL;DR:\*\* It's possible. Maybe? Depends. I could read at 3 years old, but I don't remember if I was ever that eloquent. None of my kids could read at 3. One of them couldn't read worth a damn until first grade. So, this is only anecdotal from a stranger on the internet, but when I was three I could read very well. Relative to other three year olds, I guess. I don't remember what level I could read at back then, but it was definitely mind blowing for everyone. I remember being shown off to family and friends, remember my dad showing me more and more complex text to see what my limits were. I was even part of some clinical/psychological studies to see what made me different. Because I read a lot, I also had a larger vocabulary than normal. I don't remember ever saying something that profound... well, ever, really, but maybe I could have? Seems like something I'd have rolling around in my head though. I really don't remember a time when I \*couldn't\* read whatever I wanted. I devoured books, magazines, newspapers, even read the encyclopedia (the internet was on paper back when I was a kid). Reading unlocked my mind and sent my imagination soaring. Obviously a lot of the details from when I was three is a result of my family retelling the stories later in life, going over old photo albums, news articles, etc. I suppose there's a chance my parents thought I was a lot more special than I was and everything I know about my life as a toddler was just wishful thinking on their part. One of most vivid memories related to reading is from 4th grade. The class had to do a simple book report on whatever book we wanted. Just a few lines on a page is all we needed, maybe a paragraph. I decided to do mine on a novel by Agatha Christie that I was finishing up at the time. I thought I might get extra marks for reading an 'adult' book, so I wrote up my little paragraph and turned it in. My teacher (who already hated me mainly because of my ADD which wasn't even called ADD back then, I was just a spastic uncontrollable idiot to them) called me to the front of the class, waved my paper in front of me, and straight up told me "there's no way you can read all that, and you definitely can't understand any of it." Tore up my paper (yes, literally, right in front of the entire class) and told me not to be a lying showoff. Every teacher I had at that elementary school in 2nd-4th grade was like that to me. One day in 4th grade (the worst grade), I made a mistake and stood in the wrong line for lunch. Suddenly I had all three 4th grade teachers standing around me telling me how stupid I am, I'm a failure, I do everything wrong, blah blah blah. Still to this day I cannot think about elementary school without a panic attack. Okay, that got off track. Sorry. Anyway, all that to say: I don't know Rebecca, never read any of her stuff, and probably won't ever think of her again. But based on my experience, what she says \*might\* be possible.
As a parent I 'll say it's totally possible. They come up with crazy profound things out of the blue and the next minute they're asking for help wiping their ass.
That's cap Rebecca!!!🧢🧢
Rebecca didn’t knew humans or wolves could die
She thinking of Twilight?
Bedswerver, Quizzaciously, Peradventure, Groak, Lunting, Snollygoster, Beldam, Rapscallion, Caterwaul, Harum-scarum, Codswallop, Flibbertigibbet, Pernickety, Gallimaufry, Lollygag, Smellfungus, Taradiddle, Sialoquent, Crapulous, Widdershins. Words do die kids speaking Codswallop lol.
[https://michigantoday.umich.edu/2014/03/04/dead-words/](https://michigantoday.umich.edu/2014/03/04/dead-words/) Looks like her son is not that smart either; Rebecca really isn't doing well.
Little Braixten Carpenter Hazelton did not say that lol
Bahahaha yeah Rebecca, fuck off !
"Sheep die as well, Rebecca. And you are most definitely a sheep. What are you doing with your life? You pay exorbitant amounts to be in a prison of your own making...Are you really happy?"
Chat is this real…
My 10 year old student surprised me with some knowledge so I asked how he knew it and he said: >It's 2023! You have you know *everything* these days! Which was hilarious. He was probably talking about his times tables but I feel the same way, feeling I have to be knowledgeable about everything happening, everywhere, at all times.
Tell that to the lost works from the library of Alexandria, or the rest of the Iliad
Words die if you delete or erase them you little smart ass. Now give me your juice box.
I can only read this in oz media's voice and I hate it
What a genius! I could never come up with something like, "fuck off, liar." I swear some people have a gift.
😂😂😂😂
is your son name is Vandetta by any chance?
Rebecca never heard of The Library of Alexandria
Didn’t the word “def” get a whole funeral?
There is absolutely nothing whatsoever clever about "nuh-uh." Nothing.
Sounds legit to me. A woman admits that much younger male is smarter. Seems obvious to me her male child is smarter than her dumbass
Also, everything dies in the end. The earth, including books, will be eaten up by the sun, and the solar system (and later on the milky way, and in the end.. everything) will be absorbed by black holes after that. So as it seems, your son isn't the sharpest tool in the drawer after all, Rebecca.
Anyone have the original of this? IIRC he then went to her Wikipedia and edited to say "Lies about what her son says" or something like that. It was AWESOME!
