I have recently found that I have been saying a naughty word for most of my life. I didn't realize this until one of my boys used it to describe how he did on a test. Yes, Diary, I am talking about the word frisbee. Yes, I realize that this word is copyrighted by a certain toy manufacturer, but this word is dirty. I had to wash out Mic's mouth after he said that he "totally frisbee'd up his test" the other day. (No, I didn't use bar soap; the liquid soap is much better for these purposes.) Currently I am in intense negotiations with multiple legislators to make this word illegal.
Did you know that there are sports centered around this word? Seriously, we don't have to dirty our mouths to say that we're going to play a game of "Ultimate Flying Disc" or "Flying Disc Golf". Continued use of this word is completely unacceptable. Mic loves playing the games that are soiled with this word, and he loves talking about the maneuvers he employs during gameplay, but it has to stop. I would carry around hand sanitizer to wash out his mouth (when liquid soap is not available), but I'm afraid that Mic would use that word as an excuse to eat the alcohol in the hand sanitizer.
Do you have any alternatives in mind, Diary?
