Elizabeth Spiers: New thing where I drop the slang of the youths on the 9 year old when he’s least suspecting. He likes to crawl into bed with us and asks me to lightly scratch his back so he’s comfy and can sleep. (Yes it is adorable and I will be very sad when he stops.) …

Tonight’s plan is to wait till he’s good and cozy and then whisper in his ear, are you back-scratch-pilled? Are you comfymaxxing?

He sometimes retaliates with distinctly adult language. If I’m on my phone: “oh, are you [makes scare quotes with his fingers] ‘WORKING’ right now? Being [scare quotes] ‘PRODUCTIVE’?”

Now I’m doing it to my husband

He just retaliates by putting stuff on a shelf i can’t reach and smirking when I ask him to open a jar. But I am going to the gym. Increasing my grip strength. Practicing pull ups. Will soon be able to scale the pantry shelves

Is 'all the feels' too old-fashioned by now?

It is, sigh. More late millennial

Asmr-coded? Is this giving the sleepies?

😂 adding that

Last year during the fall, he picked up some dry leaves and crumpled them next to my ear and whispered “leaf asmrrrrrrr”

Entering your comfy era!

Adding that too haha
