Monday Minute: What “Everyone Poops” Didn’t Tell You – Poop or Die
We are definitely one of the reasons tourists say they’ve seen and heard it all on the NYC subway.
Adam: Mooommmm, I’m poopy!
Me: Great, well you’re going to have to wait til we get off the train and I’ll change you in the stroller.
Adam: But you’re the poop helper.
Me: Wow, that’s a great name.
Margaret: No, her name is Princess.
James: No, she’s a poop helper, not a princess.
Margaret: But that is not a beautiful name, “Mom Princess” is a beautiful girl name!
Me: Thank you Margaret.
Adam: No! She’s poop helper!
James: Yeah! She’s not a princess!
Me (catching some snickers from nearby riders): Okay, guys, just drop it for now. Adam, I wish you didn’t poop on the subway – not great timing, bub.
James: If you don’t poop you’ll die.
Me: What?!
James: If you don’t poop you’ll die, right?
Me: Well, I suppose eventually… seriously, though, drop it.
James (looks at the man next to us) Poop or die.
(man casually gets bags and stands up)
Me: James. Look at me. (I shake my head “no” vigorously)
James: And then you’ll be nothing but skin, bones and blood.
Margaret: What?! Grooooossss! (Adam laughs)
Me: Enough! I can’t believe you sometimes…
James: Believe it, Mom.
Lol!!! That was a good one! I think every few years your “Monday Minute” needs to be made into a book. A compilation of the years “Mondays.”
I’m working on it 🙂
