(While I would never judge, it is a fact that my housemate is a person who enjoys the company of many partners. I have borrowed my housemate’s car to retrieve mine from the mechanic. My friend and four-year-old daughter are in the car. My daughter is a fan of a certain Spanish speaking Mexican girl and this is the only Spanish she could possibly know.)

Daughter: “I think this car needs a name, Dad!”

Me: “Really, [Daughter]? And what name would you give it?”

Daughter: “I think ‘Puta’ is a nice name.”

(My friend and I burst out laughing to the confusion of my daughter.)

Friend: “From the mouths of babes!”
