Nov 23

he said 'shit' My Mom put him on the couch and told him he had to sit there and say shit for a half hour or so. He sat there saying shit over and over. After a few minutes he asked if he could stop, and my Mom said, "NO!" And my little brother, by now, crying, said, "Oh, Sshhhiiittt!"
If this punishment was meant to discourage him from cussing, it didn't work.
