Listen mom, for crying out loud, if you’re going to confuse the kid with a million questions about doughnuts of COURSE he’s going to get a little turned around about the whole situation. But the facts are that he has NOT had any doughnuts, that he HAS eaten his rice and beans, and that he would just like two doughnuts right now please. That’s all! End of story. No hard feelings, just an honest request for a couple of doughnuts. (Via BuzzFeed.)

  1. Can I chime in late on the “What do we want more of from Videogum” discussion? (Pretty sure that’s what it was called.)

    More donut-related content please. I have not had any donut-related content yet, and would like more.

  2. So, do parents just shoot video of their kids all day long now and wait for something cute to post to the internet? Because I can’t think of any other reason that conversation would have been recorded.

    • As a parent, I can confirm that we do just that. My wife and I work alternating weeks so that all precious/cute/silly moments of our unique and beautiful snowflake can be captured on our piles and piles of memory cards.

    • Actually, kids just do silly crap all day. You could turn on the camera at any time and get some of that sweet, sweet YouTube gold.

    • They wear those helmets with flashlights attached to them, but in place of the flashlight, it’s just a video camera constantly recording every waking moment.

      Someone give the moms all the “Best Director” nominations this year.

  3. Maybe he meant:

  5. wow, that kid is an AWFUL liar.

  6. I have had an account here for a year and never commented on anything before but I am commenting on this because, donuts. something about this kid’s plight speaks to me.

  7. I’m glad that as an adult, I can get donuts* whenever I want without lying about it.

    *and candy, and cupcakes, and soda, etc.

  8. Man, I NEED to get some lessons on how to lie convincingly from this kid.

  9. I admire most the kid’s ability to go from looking basically content to pitiful as all get out once his mother asks what’s wrong. It’s not until the question is asked that anything appears to be wrong at all.

    However, I’m bothered by the mother’s seeming inability to pluralize the word “donut.” You’d think it was a word like “deer” or “moose.”
