What Would Your Action Figure Say?
Last week, the SuperManny somehow stumbled upon a very interesting topic with the kids.
Somehow, someone posed the question: What would Brett’s action figure say? If you had a doll that looked just like Boo, with a string to pull… What would come out?
SuperManny and Drue both immediately agreed it would be “For REAL.” (Based on a chain of statements, and basically, the addition to any opinion he expresses, several times each day. Example: “Mom. If a lion bites you, you will die. FOR REAL.”) When I got home and heard about this game, I added “I have a GREAT idea.” (This is his term for “Even though you’re saying no, I’m going to do my level best to negotiate with you…” It is also stated multiple times daily.)
Imagine my non-surprise when the SuperManny told me what the kids speculated my action figure to say:
“I’m gonna be late for work! Ahh!” (At least I’m consistent.)
After hearing that, I took it a step further in my illustrative mind. What accessories would my action figure come with? Oh yeah. Multiple bags, knitting needles and a ball of yarn, and of course the tiny Diet Redbull, Karuba coffee mug and Pepsi Max!
Suddenly, I’m the action figure on clearance at Target, aren’t I?
Play the game with your family. Learn about yourself.
I think mine would say, "One-Two-Three-Four!"
