Silly Talk

by | 10 Feb 2017

When he was learning to speak instead of saying I went there my eldest son, Mahir, used to say I goed there. Inspired by his innocent mistake I created two more words tolded and sawed. For example, I tolded you to go to bed but I sawed you playing instead later. Then I saw a t-shirt that said “world’s bestest dad” and I came up with

good, gooder, goodest,
better, betterer, betterest,
best, bester, bestest,
worse, worser, worsest

Till this day, to respond to many of my questions Mahir says, “I don’t know” but he is the only one who should know about it, for example, question: why didn’t you write your journal today. Anyway, my usual response, “You know nothing about nothing, do you?”. As you can see we are enriching the English language as much as we can!

My worst experience with doctors

It was December 2015, my second son was playing with colored cotton balls and I thought I saw him putting one small cotton ball in one of his nostrils (he was 1 year+ at that time). We saw something red in his nose but we weren’t 100% sure because the inside of a nose...

The Curious Case of Children’s Motrin Costs

I recently needed to purchase Children’s Motrin, which I had bought from Walmart a few days ago for $7.68. However, since Walmart is a bit far from my location, I decided to compare prices online at Rite Aid and CVS. To my surprise, Rite Aid listed it for $8.79, while...

Verizon Sucks

After having it for more than three years I had to cancel my Verizon Internet (FIOS) service on 09 September 2017. When I was cancelling I mentioned that bill close date was 06 September, so can I be excused for the last two days but she said no and I would be paying...

Kurbani
