(We are on the playground. I am the teacher and a child comes running up to me crying.)
Child: “Miss [name]! I fell down on the side and hurt my elbow and it REALLY hurts!”
Me: “It looks like you’re going to be fine, sweetie. I think you just hit your funny bone.”
Child: “It’s not funny!”
(I am four years old. I am taking an IQ test to see if I can start kindergarten a year early. My dad is watching the test from behind a one-way mirror.)
Tester: “What’s a liquid that comes in a bottle?”
Me: “Beer!”
Tester: “…Okay. Why don’t you tell me another one?”
Me: “Wine!”
Dad: “Is this where child protective services show up?”

(I work in biotechnology, specialising in IVF (assisted reproduction). On my daughter’s first day in kindergarten, I receive a call from the principal. She had introduced herself to the class in an interesting fashion.)
