A conversation, overheard:
Daddy: (in what he calls his 'god voice') Soo, Alexander, are you ready to rule the world?
AJ: (playing with toy power tools, wearing an itty-bitty carpenter's apron and his Seto Kaiba/Blue Eyes White Dragon t-shirt) ...Nah.
Daddy: Whaaat? But it's your destiny!
AJ: Ch'. No it's not.
Daddy: (flabbergasted) And how would you know what your destiny is??
AJ: I'm 'posed to save the world, not destroy it.
Daddy: (jaw drops)
AJ: (continues his toy carpentry)
Daddy: But-- But-- (proceeds to launch into a rant about 'But we are an ee-vil family!' and how it's our destiny to take over the world, to rule and conquer, that our son shares his name with Alexander the Great for a reason and so on and so forth)
(ten minutes later)
Daddy: --so embrace it, my Son! Embrace your destiny!!
AJ: (still playing carpenter)
Daddy: ...You're not even listening to me, are you.
AJ: (saws a plastic block) Nope.
Daddy: Are you even paying attention to me?
AJ: (hammers a plastic nail) Nope.
Daddy: (sputters indignantly and gives up on the 'conversation') (retreats, muttering something about 'saving the world' and 'goody-two-shoes')
Me: (laughing my ass off)
