My favorite recent "kids say the darnedest things"

- Guy shows his 10yo a 1-piece wood/metal chair every school had in the 50s and kid says "where do you store your water bottle?"

- Scott Simpson's teen asking "dad, before phones did everyone have a small flashlight they walked around with?"

I forgot to mention the followups, which were also great:

- Dad: we only got access to water fountains at a couple breaks in the day, I know it sounds wild kid

- Scott: we had to memorize layouts of our home hallways in our heads but also regularly stubbed our toes in the dark

@mathowie Some of us did have a favorite flashlight for reading under the covers in bed and hunting for earthworms in the lawn -- and probably for walking around the neighborhood on Halloween.
