Ruby: The Experiments Continue
Ruby: Can you get me an applesauce?
Me: Can't you get your own applesauce?
Ruby: Well there might be monsters in the backyard.
Me: Have you ever seen a monster?
Ruby: No, but there might be monsters you've never seen before.
Me: Well, THERE MIGHT BE GIANT CHOCOLATE PENGUINS OUT THERE, LOOKING FOR LITTLE GIRLS TO EAT THEM! You... just...don't...know...DO YOU? (JABBING THE AIR WITH FINGER ON THE BEAT)
Ruby: What are you talking about? Just get me some applesauce, please.
Me: Well, you'll be sorry if I comeback covered in penguin chocolate.
Ruby: I don't think that's going to happen.
Me: Can't you get your own applesauce?

i'd love to open the fridge and find a giant chocolate penguin smiling back at me.
THAT IS NOT A MONSTER GREG!
That Ruby is remarkable.
youre losing a battle of logic with a 5 yeaar old...glad i'm not the only one.
It reminds me of that dialogue from the Simpsons:
Psychologist: Mr.Simpson, I think you should try reverse psychology on Bart.
Homer: I will not use reverse psychology on my son!
Psychologist: Fine, then don't.
Homer: Fine! I will!
That kid is some smart---has she ever entertained getting into lobbying for big tobacco?
