Danger Monkey, age 9: “You should copy me.”

Little Miss Thing, age 6: “OK, climb on the copy machine and I will copy you.”

DM: “No, you’re taking my idiom literally. Do you even know what an idiom is?”

LMT: “Um… YES.”

DM: “An idiom is something that isn’t literal. Like, you’re driving me crazy.”

LMT: “I can’t drive you crazy!”

DM: “Right. It’s not literal.”

LMT: “No, I’m only 6. I don’t have a drivers license.”
