Funny Things My Brother Said #2

Discussing what he did at school:
C: In art, we made propaganda posters, then we did comic strips. I made a comic strip about people going into a bomb shelter, but one person needed a wee and there wasn't a toilet in the shelter so he went outside, then a bomb fell on him and he died.
Me: That's not very nice!
C: *Rolls his eyes* I know it's not nice. World War II wasn't nice, you know! 

C: I think the Chinese guy fancied you.
Me: What? Why?
C: Because he kept looking at you! Ooooooh!! *Wiggles eyebrows suggestively*

C, as I can imagine lots of nine year olds do, sometimes uses words in the wrong context. I say 'randomly' and 'casually' a lot, and recently he's been saying them too.

C: I'm just randomly stood at the window, trying to get fresh air.

C: Teachers are so sarcastic. Mia's Bs were dodgy in handwriting today, and miss just said they were fine! She was really sarcastic.

Me: Do you know what sarcastic actually means? 
C: Yeah, it's like when I tell a joke and you think it's rubbish but then you laugh in a really stupid, sarcastic way.
Me: Well....yeah, pretty much.
