Conversing with the toddler makes me feel like an Infocom game.

> That a car wash

No, that is a gas station.

> Go to gas station

You can't go to the gas station. It's too late. Also, it's raining.

> Go to gas station

It's still raining.

> It stop raining.

You can't stop it raining that way.

> Tooth

You have a tooth. You have many teeth.

> Tooth

I don't know what you want to do with your tooth.

All you have to do is say "Odysseus" & he'll flee.

(Unless he's buckled into a car seat. Then I guess you're stuck in the convo-loop.)

Yes, this is exactly the conversation we had in the car on the way home last night.

I think my favorite part is "it stop raining".

[metaphortunate]

Yes! He's still trying to figure out what he can change by saying so!
