So Not Nailing This Auntie Gig
My wife and I are shopping for a few things in a hardware store chain, and I show my wife a display “shop magnet”. Basically, it’s a strong magnet on a broom pole for picking up metal filings, small screws, and things like that. I leave her playing with it while I go to grab what we need.
When I come back to the aisle, I find my wife with one of the shop magnets and a box of 100 small nails.
Wife: “Look! This is going to make an awesome birthday present for [Four-Year-Old Nephew]!”
Me: “You know, I think I get why your brothers and sisters won’t let you babysit your nieces and nephews.”
And no, we did not get the boy a magnet and a box of 100 small nails for his fourth birthday.
