I never knew it was a reference to something outside of the movie.<br /><br />Another little thing that irritates me like crazy is the thing where people point to your chest then tip your nose when you look down.<br /><br />Robyn C.Robyn Coburn Writer/Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17118929626629581261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477393606153944420.post-42871090734688216832011-10-04T09:21:43.213-06:002011-10-04T09:21:43.213-06:00(by e-mail, permission to share):
Hi Sandra,
Th...(by e-mail, permission to share):<br /><br /><br />Hi Sandra,<br /><br />There was another one that was done to me when I was about 9. A boy I really liked at the time asked me if I thought I was pretty. I said yes, and he said, yeah, pretty stupid, or something like that. It did hurt my feelings and actually had a much bigger effect on my already lacking self esteem. I like how you turned this around for your kids. I never forgot that moment and it really stunk.<br /><br />I love reading your "Just Add light and Stir". Great reminders and thought provoking on our unschooling life journey.<br /><br />Peace and love,<br />AmySandra Doddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11853107998229753762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477393606153944420.post-25801364958161385952011-10-04T06:58:44.421-06:002011-10-04T06:58:44.421-06:00(by e-mail; comment-posting problem)

I didn't play this game (or have it played on me), but it's the kind of game that I would not want played with my little boy either. Depending on who was playing it, I might say "Please don't teach him that," or, I might be afraid to say that, since I might be told I'm "too sensitive" or to "lighten up." <br /><br />Thanks for what you do. I learn so, so much, every single day. <br /><br />~Michelle<br />Pittsburgh, PASandra Doddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11853107998229753762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477393606153944420.post-55083749420844258082011-10-04T03:39:26.467-06:002011-10-04T03:39:26.467-06:00I hadn't heard the ditty phrased that way befo...I hadn't heard the ditty phrased that way before. When we were kids, the one we heard was:<br /><br />"Look up. Look down. Look all around. Your pants are falling down!" (accompanied by being pants-ed during that last sentence)<br /><br />Both ditties are unkind.<br /><br />I like stopping at the "Look up." part, too :-).<br /><br />P.S. - So glad I clicked over to your site to comment, because I saw the magnets listed in your sidebar. Yay!! I've been out of the unschooling-lists-&-chats loop this summer, so am a bit behind on what's new.Glendahttp://47thingsby47.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
