Tiny drunk people
or…you know… kids. In my 27 years of being on this planet, I have learned that children are very complex creatures. But they also have similarities of adults which can be a good or bad thing. But one thing that has remained constant in my research is that the younger the child, the crazier they are.
My one year old, for example, is a precious little girl…but she is insane. Specifically when she’s sleepy. She screams, she throws things, starts fights with people way bigger than her. She’s like a tiny drunk old man, that’s 10 seconds away from getting kicked out of a bar.
When she isn’t sleepy, she’s still a little hellion. Still screaming, or rambling incoherently, but also dancing to no music at all, stumbling about, and getting emotional at every little thing. It reminds me of the first time I had been victimized by tequila. That night ended with me crying because I thought everyone was mean, and then disappearing into my room to pass out in my bed while I had company.
It’s so hard to reason with someone under the influence of alcohol, much like it is hard to reason with a child who doesn’t understand words yet. There is no “wait a second, I just have to finish this one thing”. In their little drunk minds, it’s RIGHT NOW! Insert random bout of babbling and screaming here. Not to mention how rude they are!
Kids…tiny drunk people….whatever you call them, be sure to keep a camera rolling. You’ve got at least 18 years of footage to acquire… You know, for blackmail purposes and such.
