This should be required watching for all Preschool classes….it’s pretty much how life rolls…
@Robin, Yep.
Classic. That whole “grow up and get into the Senate and fix the world” thing? That was totally me. However, I never popped anyone’s jelly ball, on purpose, that is.
@Nancy [Fear and Parenting in Las Vegas], I did. But it was in the interest of the greater good.
That video made me feel better about every shameful act I’ve ever committed. I don’t know if that was it’s intention.
@Poppy, I say you go with it.
“What the ff…”, made me laugh.
Man. So true.
@Sybil Law, My favorite part!!
This is so true, and so sad that it is.
@SciFi Dad, It is pretty sad, but I’m not ashamed to say I found this absolutely hilarious.
I love this even though it made me incredibly sad.
@Lisa, The way I see it, a person has to be built a certain way for politics. I think the absolute nicest, most genuine and kind politician out there is probably half the human being you and I are. Cynical? Yes. But, it feels true.
I agree with this sentiment completely. It’s why I’m friends with you.
@Avitable, So you can deflate the awesome jelly ball that is my life?! Expected.
I don’t know if I should be ashamed of laughing so hard or not. But between her voice and the comparisons of a bigger ball to all that we adults hold valuable, I just couldn’t keep my face straight. That was a great way to spend 5 minutes.
@tracey, I thought it was really funny, too. I did feel a twinge of sadness at the end. I think it was the last vestiges of idealism dying inside of me.
but her dreams they arent as empty, as her conscience seems to be…
@justsomethoughts, Maybe to make those dreams come true, a person has to forgo the luxury of a conscience?
I’m sorry but I cracked up watching this.
I realize that it’s supposed to make us think and all that but really….her version of the word “retaliate” and “we don’t have to be sorry, just look like we are” just put me over the edge…
@Sheila, Oh, don’t apologize, I found it pretty funny myself.
hahhahahaha
“what the ffffff?”
“I was not having a blast.”
I know there is some deep message here, but little kids talking is adorably hysterical. That’s what *I* got out of this video.
@Miss Britt, I know. My favorite line was, “I was legit…” Heh.
