That's funny, because that was almost the same reaction I had to it.

"Check it out mom, I raise my arm, they all cheer. Watch, I'll do it again. Isn't that nuts? It's like they're a bunch of animals. That's right, do it again. And again. God, the power is making me dizzy. Oh, and I've pooped myself too. What a day!"

Children are not cute.

(No, not even yours. No, not even the ones I'm related to.)

21 second FPP?

With a title like "Crowd Control" I kept waiting for the kid to get doused with pepper spray.

I usually hate "cute kid" videos, but this one made me laugh.

And boy, did I need it, what a Monday it's been already.

WTF does how big is Will mean? I mean... whales are big... right?

How many Wills are there?

For the childless: "How big is [child's name]?" is a standard question, and the standard response from the child is "raise arms." It comes bundled with the great majority of children, and is generally used as a quick and dirty I/O functionality test.

I thought she was saying Triumph of the Will.

This kid is like a teeny Chris Matthews.

After he got done there he flipped a few cars over and looted Robinson's Luggage.

Loved that. Delightful crowd response and they were getting such a kick out of it.

The last time was the best. The kid had a real I AM CAESAR thing going that time.
