The one where The Boy explains how a turtle tank is like high school


MY son came in last night to tell me that he had decided that his turtle tank was like high school. "Really?", I asked him, "How so?"

He sat down with a bit of a smirk on his face, cleared his throat dramatically, and explained...

"Well, the turtle is the cool, confident kid who kind of gets along with everyone and always knows what he's doing...

The bass is like the football players and the jocks...always beating people up and eating people...

The little sunfish is like the girls, you know, all self conscious and defensive.

The catfish is like the awkward kid who's always hanging around...

The weird fish who hangs out at the bottom all the time is like the potheads.

And the little feeder fish are like the freshman because they get picked on and eaten."

After I stopped laughing I asked him which he was.

Any ideas? What do you think he said? I'll reveal his answer in tomorrow's post.
