me, as a child: I beat all my sisters at hide and seek today!

my dad: that’s good, but your brother Daniel is the reigning champ

me: who

@whatsjo
Some say I was the best at Hide N Seek. Others think I peaked too early!
@whatsjo When I worked on a Children’s Unit, we were having a very busy, admissions, discharges, grumpy parents. So to ease the burden we sent a new nurse off to look after four 5 year olds. After 20 minutes they came back wanting a drink, “Where’s Nurse ******?” “We started playing hide and seek, she’s hiding”. Four f^cking hours later she came back with a smile on her face. “Ha” She said “they never found me”. “Where are the kids?” I’ll never forget the look on her face.

many years ago,
My stepdaughter: “Hey, I’m gonna turn 13 next week!”
Me: “funny, that’s just what your brother said.” (this was before my son came out, we didn’t know)
Stepkid: “But I don’t have a… mom? MOM!!!”
@whatsjo one of my fave jo jokes ever 🙌
@shortsleevesuit I’ll tell my dad!!!! 🫶🏻
