    You remind me of my kid. Every time I say something they recognize as untrue they call me “Silly Daddy.”

    Today they went to an event where they assured me they’d be swimming (a claim their mother disputed). When they got back, I asked whether they had enjoyed swimming.

    “We didn’t swim, we just put our feet in the river. There was no pool. Silly Daddy!”

        Funny enough, ten minutes ago I was telling a friend of mine how everyone always (understandably but incorrectly) assumes I got this username from the tiles. And calls me Tony.

        I don’t disagree that the tiles are silly, though there is a documentary (on hulu when I watched it, not sure about now) about how the truth is closer to them being sad.

        edit: I’m not exactly sure when the tiles started appearing, but I’m at least 60% confident that I had this username beforehand.
