Man vs Wild


So we're driving home in the van after school and lil brother from the back seat asks me, "Mom, would you drink your own pee?"

Me (horrified): "Uh....NO!." ...pause 3 beats... "Would you?!?"

And he assures me that he would. But he would first kill a snake, and then pee in the snake, and then carry it around with him wherever he went (like a canteen I suppose). And then big kid chimes in too. And he agrees totally with lil brother. He would drink his own pee from a dead snake too. And when he got hungry, he would slice off chunks of the snake to snack on. And I am totally befuddled and nauseous by all this. What in the world....!?! I can promise you this: if I lived to be a hundred, this scenario would never enter my brain-EVER. The perk of having boys, I suppose.

Come to find out, they watched this all go down on their fav show Man vs Wild. They are in total agreement that this is the Best. Show. Ever. And I guess if they're ever stranded on an island, they at least have a plan. I-however-plan to just lie down and simply die before I go looking for a snake to pee in.

  1. I'm with you on this one! Ugh!! I can however totally see your guys doing this and then holding you down and forcing some pee down your throat "for your own good"!
