In honor of the release of The Wolverine tomorrow, I present this conversation between myself and Boy Detective, back when he was three:
Boy Detective: Wolverine’s mad because someone (indistinct) his beer.
Me: Someone drank his beer?
Boy Detective: Someone TOOK his beer.
Me: Well that would make him mad, that’s for sure.
Boy Detective: (indistinct)
Me: What?
Boy Detective: YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT BAD GUYS ARE GOING TO TAKE YOUR DRINKS!
Dude, I’d be mad if someone took my beer, too. Probably not Wolverine-mad, but there would be some anger. All is happy in the world until some bad guy comes along and takes your beer.
Seriously! Bad guys should buy their own beer.
