If you want an independent opinion, I'll feel yours and Tony can feel Darren's and then we'll compare notes.

My boy Connor is 5 and I have had him listening to a few old classics, his favourite being Step ON by the Happy Mondays.
With grans and granddads around this week I built him up to sing the first few lines and dance like Bez to it but he got a bit shy and said he couldn't remember all the words. I told him to think about some food we had eaten this weekend and mouthed the word melon to him.
All proud he started off ' twisting my melon man, you talk so hip man your twisting my melon man.........corn on the cob'

Lol. Priceless. 30 years down the line, things our kids have said are still repeated. Some have become part of our everyday vocabulary.

Cheers Kuku, I do love those old put downs and laughs that get passed down thru the years Tom, when we were kids do you remember the TV show Hart to Hart?
I have 2 brothers and we would play the Hart to Hart game which involved one of us being Robert Wagner, the other being Stephanie Powers and the last one had to Max the gofer and butler/ dogsbody. So we would take it in turns and when it was your go to be Max you had to fetch and carry for everyone that day.
So in our family Max has now become a derogatory name which has now been prefixed to highlight the level of buffoonery you have just performed' big Max' 'Super Max' etc. We even send cards to each other saying Happy Birthday King Max etc and answer the phone to each other with summat like 'whats tha want big Max'. The extended family even do it now too, so we have managed to turn a kids game into a long running put down/leg pull. Any instance of out Maxing someone else gets you a full round of Max.

My Mrs fancied watching a film one night so I told here to look thru the channels and pick one she wanted. She flicked thru the paper and said 'at 9 o'clock there is a French film called La Confidentiale on BBC2 that looks ok' I ask her what it is about and she says ' A police man trying to eradicate corruption falls in love with the wrong girl'.
A little like your hotel room example I ask her if it's got subtitles and she says no, so at least I can listen to it and grunt in all the right places when she starts asking me what will happen next.
So I trot into the kitchen 2 mins before it starts to make a cuppa and when I go back thru the film has already started and instead of a French film called La Confidentiale she is in fact watching LA Confidential.

Haha. That's one to save for when you have friends round and you want to tease her.
