Ezri Speaks

Glasses with attached mustache = classy

Here’s some Ezri quotes.

“I’m the center of contention.”

“I have a rumbly in my bumbly.” followed by fart noises.

Ezri is trying to work out what is funny. She is testing a theory that saying things obviously false to both parties is amusing.
“Eagles can’t fly.” Ezri laughs and then pauses, “Is that funny?”
“Don’t stop at stop signs.” Ezri laughs and then pauses, “Is that funny?”
Humor is tricky.

Ezri does know there’s such a thing as a bad joke.
She told me that “The Joker is a bad guy who tells bad jokes.” I’ve also learned he would probably take your snack instead of sharing his snack with you. That Joker is pretty evil.

Ezri is struggling with understanding that words have multiple meanings and that we speak in idioms.
I said “the proof is in the pudding.” And Ezri asked about pudding having a roof and then how do you eat it with its roof on.
I took off my glasses and said that “things were fuzzy.” Ezri was super puzzled as fuzzy means only like a furry teddy bear to her. She asked how that worked and if she could do it. Eric and I explained about the other meaning of “fuzzy.” The next day she took of her sunglasses and said, “Now everything is fluffy.” It took me a minute to figure out what she was referencing.
