Honest Kids Say The Darndest Things

bareboards2says...

This man in my avatar. That's my poppa. He repeated the story for DECADES about a particular truth-telling little girl.

Art Linkletter had a show called "Kids Say the Darnedest Things." Methinks Eric3579 remembers this show. There was a segment where Art would ask kids questions, just to see what they would say.

He asked this one memorable girl -- the red light on a stoplight means stop, the green means go. What does the yellow light mean?

She leaned forward into the mike and said "Step on the gas."

My dad would tell that story and chuckle and chuckle and chuckle.

Jeff Bridges said the same thing in Starman.
"Green means go
Red means stop
Yellow means go very fast."

My mother had stories of us children reminding her she swore too much. For instance I was calling a type of sports car a f**ing @**hole because that is what cut my mother off in traffic.

Look ma another f**ing @**hole.

The best was the little girl wishing for big boobies.
That cracked me up.

Now that I'm at home with my headphones it sounds like "I'm going to throw a shoe at you, shut up".

Those off-off-off-Broadway audiences are tough.
