another thing that made me smile. a herpes commercial. no, not the commercial itself but my 11yr old's reaction. he asked what it was, was it a disease you get from s-e-x. when we told him it was he was appropriately grossed out. we simply told him it was like a rash that hurt. his next question was "how did the first person get it? they didn't do s-e-x? they must have just got it from nowhere! oh my god! i could just get it from nowhere!! i am going to get it!! what if i get it!??!" to stop the panic. sparky opted to tell him that someone probably got it from an animal. while this calmed j down he thought for a second and then asked, completely grossed out:
