Boing Boing

3:30pm. The phone rings in my office.

"Hello?"

"[Something Something] Boing Boing!" says the Bean.

"Did you just say 'Gerald McBoing Boing'?"

WW™ translates. "We bought a new book today."

The Bean gets back on. "Do you know what's a funny word Daddy? Boing boing. Boing boing! Boing boing! Boing boing! Boing boing!"

(He's right. It is a funny word.)

Yeah, love the old-school computer banner -- can't read the choices in the quiz, though.

Is "Boing Boing" one word, or two?

Derek Armstrong said...

Make that, "in the poll."

When spoken by a pre-schooler, "boing boing" is one word.

So what was the book?

Gerald McBoing Boing. It's Dr. Suess.
