Sebastian is our thirteen-year-old son and he says some of the funniest things–we have no idea where he gets his material since his mother and I are rather boring, serious people. 

Nathan, Sebastian’s older brother, is home for the summer and as a result, there have been a lot more interactions regarding random trivia. It was just a normal night at the dinner table….

Me: “Did you Google the Simpsons or Nixon?”

Seba: “The Simpsons.”
