Worked a middle school boys game today at my daughter's school. She normally doesn't go to my games (about one per season), but since this was in her school, she stuck around for most of it before disappearing to the band room. Some of her friends asked her why my partner and I kept saying "blue" instead of "purple."

She told them it was because blue was easier to say, and that it was one syllable. I just asked her if she had heard me say that before.

"Is that really the reason?"

Just like her Dad. Talking out of her a$$ and getting it right at the same time.
