"Daddy, I'm home from school!"
"Hi...how was today in 4th grade?"
"It was great, we all talked about you at recess."
"About me?  What about me?"
"Well, I saw that when you send notes to your football friends, you put "riding the GROC party bus" and "I hated Callahan before it was cool" after your name.  And we talked about what that mean't"
"What do you think it means?"
"It was obvious to everyone in the 4th grade that those are said in jest but intended to convey that you don't think the coach is very good at his job and you will be glad when he isn't the coach anymore"
"But didn't any of you think that it might mean that I really hated a man personally and delight in his troubles?"
"Of course not, any 4th grader could see that"
"Did any of you think that I was really riding around on a hate-filled party bus?"
"Stop making fun Daddy, that's ridiculous and you know it."
"And all the 4th graders knew this?"
"Yep.  But there was one of the 3rd graders who said that it really represented a cannibalistic acid eating away at the foundation of the program.  He was pretty sure that it had elements of the primitive rituals described by Frazer in The Golden Bough."
"Wow, that sounds interesting."
"Not really, we all thought he sounded like a total dork."
"Then what?"
"Another 3rd grader shouted 'I agree! I agree! If these fans are the best I don't want to meet the worst.'"
"What did you think of that?"
"It was no big deal.  He's a kid that nobody likes."
"I love you, Stinky"
"Daddy, I told you I don't like to be called Stinky anymore"
"But you do like it when I call you Peanut, right?"
"Right"
"I love you, Peanut"
"I love you too, Daddy"

Go Big Red
