athikaprasangi

ikshu going no i don't want this at yet another breakfast (kuzhippaniyaaram)
me: no for this too? have u ever said yes to anything in life?
ikshu: yes i have
me: what?
ikshu: just now u asked have u ever said yes to anything and i said yes!

reminds me of the 2 vaazhappazam joke!!

ikshu (complaining about raisins in the breakfast cereal): i don't like kismis in corn flakes
me: yday u complained about idlis and wanted cereals - today i give you cereals and u have something to complain about that too? what will you do if u go to some place where you can't get, say curd?
ikshu goes silent and angry not talking - goes to balcony and stands there staring into space - i coax him to talk finally and the tears start rolling down! how can u say that i will be in a place where i can't get curd!! had to give him stories about arctic / antartic expeditions where you can't get curd to get him to stop crying!!
