Today was the annual Blue & Gold Dinner for the local Cub Scouts, among whom are numbered my two sons. Near the end of the festivities, it was time for the awarding of badges and similar swag -- each group of kids came up, with their parents, to get their rank badge, or special-interest belt loops, or various other things.
My younger son, Thing 2, had completed the requirements to be a Tiger Cub, and so he got his Tiger badge.
And I, standing behind him, could be heard to mutter under my breath, "Face it, Tiger, you just hit the jackpot!" I just couldn't help myself.
(Yes, I know it doesn't actually make sense...but he was a Tiger and he got something good, so it seems like it should make sense.)
