Was having dinner in a friend’s place, then her 4 year-old lil brother came to the table and started chatting with me. So, I joined him in the conversation, which turned out to be a really entertaining one.
We chatted for about 10 minutes, when I started to ask him, what is this and what is that as i began pointing, and he began naming them for me.
I was impressed from the moment he initiated the conversation, then as I went on pointing, he began to name them. Until, I pointed at the orange coloured dish on the table.
“What is this Adrian?” I asked
“(Think for a second…or maybe two second) … PAWN” , he hesitated and replied.
“No, that’s not a pawn, try again, you were close.” I encouraged
“(Looked puzzled) … a pawn...” he answered and looked at me, waiting for me to agree.
“No Adrian, that’s not a pawn, it’s PORN”
“PORN” he followed.
It was too late; I just introduced a dish called porn to a four year old kid!
It was actually prawn. Slipped my mouth.
My bad.
