JCC ask a 7 year old

hello grown up JCCers...

i know, adulting can be hard... before all the aging, and jobbing, and bills and stuff, we were young, careless imagineers... if only we could go back to that simple way of being... of knowing.. if all of our cares, stresses, and concerns could be addressed in the same way a quixotic child, without a deep awareness of real world consequences, transcends the practical and entertains the absurd, foolish even, with a passion. well, there is a way...

the advice, the answers, the wisdom, the insight of a 7 year old boy - they're yours for the asking...

purely coincidental yet poignant image of the core message here...

 

what becomes of the broken hearted?

 

Dear 7 Year Old,
Should I itemize my deductions or take the standard deduction?

 

anger.

uhhhhh. i do not know what the disgustidistand, the standard, i do not know what those are, so what's next?

 

7 Year Old,

Who is John Galt?

 

somebody who's talking about stuff. i don't want to add anything else.

 

Seven Year Old,
What's your favorite tattoo that your mom has?

 

uhhhhh..... none!

7 Year Old,

What's cool these days?

 

7 Year Old,

What's the point of it all when you are building a wall and in front of your eyes it disappears?

 

being DJs. rainbow. fighting. uhhhh horns, capes, uh moms jumping on their head.

 

it's a point of nothing and a waste of blocks. now look in this crystal.

 

Would you clap your man for frontin'?

 

Dear 7 year old,

How do I format my hard drive and install latest apps so that I can download everything for free all the time - also how do I configure my phone, TV, laptop so that everything is linked and how do I win Minecraft?

 

What in your opinion should be the next big kids literature sensation after Harry Potter? General plot, characters, etc

 

i would clap to make the highest clap.

you would need a big, big, a lot of halls, a lot of stuff. i'll play minecraft, maybe today. maybe you'll need a lot of pandas?

 

once upon a time there was a little baby named Laurie, who jumped over a fence, and then broke a bone, and that's the end.

Dear 7 year old,

do you bleed?

Batkiller

 

What would you do if your son was at home, crying on the floor because he is hungry?

 

EDIT: too late with my face

 

did i bleed? of course we bleed. we are humans. yes, we do, of course we do, because everything in the world bleeds, except stuff.

 

get him to eat his shoe. make him cry some more. then go to the store and by him some food.

Dear 7 year old, who is Steve Perry?

 

whether this becomes a literary sensation remains to be seen, but it is an accurate representation of human existence
