(My little cousin that’s about four is decorating his tiny Christmas tree with ornaments when he finds his favorite gingerbread man ornament doesn’t have the metal hook to hang it on the tree.)
Cousin: “Oh, no! This gingerbread man lost his hooker!”
Me: “What?!”
Cousin: “You know, the metal thingy to hang him on the tree!”
(I tried explaining that he should not use that word, but he was too young to understand that “hooker” was a naughty word and incorrect for what he was talking about. A few days later, we went to take pictures with Santa.)
Santa: “Ho Ho Ho! Merry Christmas, young man! Is there anything you would like for Christmas?”
Cousin: *yells loudly* “A GINGERBREAD MAN WITH A HOOKER!”
