iBeth had a funny post about figuring out what her son meant by a boy-cheese sandwich. Funny-child stories are, of course, an Olympic event, and her story brought to mind one of mine:
When Bo Peep was a baby, The Princess would crawl up into bed with me in the morning and watch me nurse her. The Princess was 2 at the time, and wanted to know the name for absolutely everything. We don't do euphemisms for body parts, so when she would point to the different parts of my breast, I would give her the name --- nipple, breast, areola, etc.
So one day, she hops up and begins naming the parts ... "Nipple, breast, mermaid."
HUH?
She repeated it ... "Nipple, breast, MERMAID."
It was only after a few days that I figured it out.
Those of you familiar with Disney's The Little Mermaid and the title character have probably already got it.
Title character: Ariel.
