Sempi is the resident expert on all things greek mythology in our household. He will often share “interesting” facts in the form of “Did you know… ?”. One such conversation ensues. Sempi: Did you know that Apollo actually shot a plague of arrows? But it is often misintepreted as he shot arrows of palgue. Vian : What do you mean? Sempi: He shot so many arrows in the sky that it was a plague of arrows....
Vian : I think I'm ok at comedy. Yoshi: Oh yeah! Vian : Muhuhahaha! Muhuhahaha! *Vian starts laughing maniacally* *Yoshi joins in and start laughing* *Vian stop abruptly while Yoshi is still laughing* Vian : See, I told you I'm ok at comedy.
I’m reviewing math lessons with Vian before his test. We’re on a chapter about polygons. Me: What is a pentagon? Vian: It's a polygon with five sides. Me: Good! What is a regular pentagon? Vian: A regular pentagon? Me: Yeah. Vian: I think it is a pentagon that is not special? Me: What? Vian: It's a pentagon without anything special about it. Just regular. Me: *laughing* It's a pentagon with equal sides....
Vian: Will you be available later today to answer some questions? Me: Sure, I'll be around. What questions do you have? Vian: What was the best part of your day? Worst part of your day? things like that.... Me: Dude, asking each other about our day is not an interrogation.
I’m on a walk with Vian. We’re strategizing about this new Donkey Kong vs Mario game. Vian: How can we make sure we finish the levels before the timer runs out? Me: What if we go for different keys in parallel? Vian: Oh yeah! I'll go for the silver key and you can go for the gold key? <silver key is usually harder> Me: Why? You don't trust me to get the silver key?...
