Dear Kid,
Having one of those “Well, duh” moments.
There’s a video making the rounds on the ‘net (you can watch it here if you really want to) that proves that dogs have selective hearing.
Well, duh.
We (and by “we” I mean all cat parents, most dog parents, and many children parents—possibly hippo parents and giraffe parents too but I can’t be sure) see this EVERY STINKIN’ DAY.
Parent: Come here
Cat blinks.
Parent: Come here
Dog continues sniffing.
Parent: Come here
Child continues building Leggos.
Parent (whispering): …treat…
Everyone races to be the first (or second) to get the treat. Except the cat who saunters nonchalantly over but has plans to kill anyone who takes the cat treat.
This is not new news.
Parent says: Clean up your room, wash your face, then we’ll go shopping for school supplies.
Child hears: Let me grab my purse, a snack for you, and the car keys and we’ll go buy Star Wars Leggos.
Again. Nothing new.
Sometimes we hear the greatest new things on the internet.
Sometimes everything old is new again (extra points if you get the reference).
