Turning the Other Cheek
Sibling: “Patrick, your ‘r’s don’t look right. They’re supposed to be in the lines, not up there.”
Patrick: “If you don’t like my ‘r’s, then you should see my capital ‘D’s.”
Me: “What’s wrong with your capital ‘D’s?”
Patrick (showing me one of his ‘D’s): “Look.”
It looked fine to me. Truth be told, Patrick’s writing may be neater than the critics, but I’m not going to say anything. 🙂
