My little cousin George can be described in one word, but if I did that, you would barely know him. He is not especially smart and can be extremely literal. He’s a pretty cute kid but some of the things he says are pretty darndest. Here are a few misconceptions he had over this past summer:
1. He thought Breaking Dawn was a movie about marital abuse between a husband and his wife named Dawn.
2. He thought British Petroleum was an organization that made petroleum jelly. He thought petroleum jelly was a close relative to strawberry jelly. When he saw all the negative criticizms of BP on the televison, he smashed all of the strawberry jelly in his home and tore up all of his mother’s strawberry plants so that she couldnt make anymore jelly and therefore support the oil spewwing BP.
3. He thought Lady Gaga was on drugs…nevermind, that was a bad one.
4. He could not understand why Apple was giving away free iPhone bumpers when the insurance company wouldn’t pay for his mother’s car bumper to be fixed.
5. He was upset with the Californian judicial system when he saw Lindsay Lohan’s mom walking around in public when Lindsay was in jail. He was under the impression that Mrs. Lohan was in fact Lindsay. When he was corrected, he replied by saying all 50 year old women look the same.
6. He could not understand why Lance Armstrong was wearing his inflamed testicle on his head during the Tour De France. It was actually just Lance’s helmet.
7. George was under the impression that Sookie Stackhouse and Snooki from the Jersey Shore were the same person and thought the Jersey Shore was in fact the HBO series True Blood. He made a compelling argument, however. The cast of the Jersey Shore only goes out at night, they have abnormal skin tones, and when they start to drink, people get hurt. Sound like anyone you know?
