Girls & boys
"Ready for your cornflakes, goils?"
"Yes, Dad!" They take their places at the breakfast table.
"Dad?"
"Yes, Emily?"
"Why do you sometimes call us goils?"
I briefly consider explaining all about my rich interior life, in which I am a character from a Damon Runyon short story, but decide that this will probably give rise to one of her odd stares. Instead, I mumble something about just doing it for fun, which seems to satisfy her.
One minute later
"Dad?"
"Yes, Emily?"
"If I have boys when I grow up, I think I'll call them boils."
"That will probably be a very good name for them, darling..."

I have 2 boils actually. One's twelve and the other is....7y7y178y378t34
They are bored of "boils" already! Shame. I love it!
"I have 2 boils actually."
I'd be careful who you go around telling that to!
