Kids (but moreso adults) say the darnest things!

While skimming the pages of People magazine with my nine-year-old niece:

Me: Do you still like Lindsay Lohan?
Liezel: No, she's so skinny now!
Me: I know! What about this girl?
Liezel: Ew! That's Nicole Richie! She's even worse! See? She weighs 90 'libs'!
Me: You mean pounds... "lbs." is pronounced as 'pounds'!
Liezel: Oh!

Hehe. Cute! Did I mention that when I was a kid, I thought 'unknown' was pronounced as "ank-nown"?

While at a BBQ party with an arrogant Pinay:

Her: Ewan ko ba, ang hihilig ng iba sa LV na bag, puro fake naman!
Me: Uh-huh.
Her: Yung iba jan, pagka sweldo bibili ng mga designers, mga fake naman!
Me: (pointing at her bling bling) Ay! Ang ganda naman ng kwintas nyo! Ano yan, Laurentti?

Hehe. I took her silence as confirmation.
