Yellow Car

CAM: I've recently started reading Kelly Oxford's blog and she can be quite funny at times. She writes in dialogue/script on occasion. Mostly involving her hilarious kids. This past Friday, she shared this little gem, so I thought I'd post it here. All credit to her, I didn't write any of it; I just copy/pasta'd.

KELLY: Ok. You guys, the yellow car that we are going to pass in 3 blocks does not count anymore. It's always parked there and you've called it too many times.

HENRY: *age 8* What?!

KELLY: You've called it too much, you both know it's there. I don't want a screaming match for a 'point' over that car.... I'm hereby determining it NULL. No points for the yellow car coming up.

SAL: *age 10* YELLOW CAR!!

HENRY: Where?

KELLY: SAL I TOLD YOU THIS ONE DOESN'T COUNT!!!

HENRY: YELLOW CAR!!!

KELLY: Henry, Sal just called it and I told you that you can't call that car! It's NULL!

HENRY: She couldn't even call it back there! She couldn't see it!

SAL: Yes I could!

KELLY: Yeah, she could totally see it and this is EXACTLY why I determined the car to be NULL.

HENRY AND SAL: I GET THE POINT!!!

KELLY: *stops the car* Both of you get out and walk home. You both are BACK TO ZERO POINTS IN YOUR YELLOW CAR GAME! Get out, walk.

SAL: Ok.

HENRY AND SAL: *start getting out of the car*

KELLY: GET BACK IN THE CAR RIGHT NOW!!!! *starts driving* If you guys got abducted what would I tell the police?? "Oh, yeah Officer, I kicked them out of the car because of the Yellow Car Game. You know, it was annoying." NO WAY! I am not gonna become the bad guy here, not now, not on my watch!!!!

SAL: You're insane.

HENRY: YELLOW CAR!

SAL: ARRRRGH!!
