6yo: Are we there yet?
Me, internally: Does it fucking look like we’re there yet? We are literally driving down a road at 45 miles per hour. If we were there, we would be parked at our destination. WHAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT BEING “THERE??"
Me, to 6yo: 10 more minutes.

The jokes about “are we there yet” and being repeated over & over? I thought those were gags. Just bits on sitcoms.

My god, they are NOT.

My kid will demand a response & if one is not received:

“Daddy? Dad? Dad? Daddy? Daddy? Daddy? Daddy?...” (Cont)
