The Dormouse: "Momma, Dad, we should get a minivan." Both me and the The KingofHearts with shock and horror: "NOOOOoooooo!!!!
The KingofHearts: "That's a terrible idea."
DM: "But if we got a minivan, the door could slide open."
Me: "Ah, but a minivan has a lot of other bad things about it."
DM: "Like what?"
KoH: "Well, it sucks, for one."
Me: "And the seats are full of tacks so when you sit in them you poke your butt."
KoH: "And that's no fun."
Me: "And when you turn on the radio, all you get on any station is one guy going, 'AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.'"
The Caterpillar: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH."
The Dormouse: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH."
The Caterpillar: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH."
The Dormouse: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH."
The Caterpillar: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH."
The Dormouse: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH."
Me: "OKAY THAT'LL BE QUITE ENOUGH."

Has she been hanging around my MIL?

Good for you both! Minivan = EVIL!

Hahahahaha...
Hey wait! You know what's going to happen, don't you? Somewhere down the road, she's going to get a ride home from a church or school activity with some friend who has a minivan and it's going to be traumatic because she'll believe the bit about the tacks and then she'll tell the friend that you and the KOH said the seats in minivans have tacks and then the friend will tell her that isn't true and her mommy and daddy are some derogatory something or other and, upon dropping her off, will look at you strangely and will wonder under their breath what other odd notions you put in your kids' heads...
Perhaps when you tell her about Santa Claus and/or sex, you should disabuse her of the tacks-in-minivans notion.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

@DC: Yeah that thought actually crossed my mind. It'd be funny though and not among the worst of things I've done to mess up my kid so... you know... totally worth it.

I agree with her. I think you should get a mini-van. It would be much more comfortable for everyone involved. And some visitors.

Hmmm....One more kid and I'm sure we'll have the same conversation. AGU!

Sheesh, you've described my minivan exactly. Except my radio only plays Glenn Beck.
That's why I keep it, even though the seats poke our butts.
