Rockstar: Mum. Did you know some of my friends walk around school with these notes on their backs that say “Hit Me”? And then when you hit them they’re all, “Wha – WHY’D YOU HIT ME FOR???”
Me: I don’t think they know they have notes on their backs. It’s an old practical joke where someone sticks a note saying “Hit Me” on someone else’s back.
Rockstar: What? Why would they do that for? <thoughtfully> No, that can’t be it – some people are even very polite about it. They use “please”. As in, “Please hit me.” They must really want people to hit them.
The Earnest One on Chinese Dressup Day recently…
Yes, he is really earnest. Good think he talked to you about it or else he would be hitting people with those papers on their backs.
Yeah it’s funny and yet not so funny…
