Kids quip(s) of the day...

Yesterday while driving home from fetching Paul from work, Paul said to this old man in front of us, "Go Toppie!". [Now, if you are South African, you know what this means... if not, then let me explain: in Afrikaans, the slag phrase for an old man (good or bad, depending on the context) is "Ou Toppie" Sometimes, this is shortened to just "Toppie" as Paul did.]
The kids, especially Jordy, thought this was hilarious so he was saying it over and over again... but instead of saying "Toppie", he said, "Tooffie". This is now the standing phrase for anyone who does something silly... :)
