"that was nasty"
Today we ate lunch in Princeton on the way home from the game. Raigan, Mom and Daddy, always get water. Kerrigan and Jaidan are sprite drinkers. As I took a drink of the water I instantly said, "oooh that is some nasty water". Raigan took a drink of hers, and repeated what I said. Raigan went to get some lemons to try to improve the water. Jaidan took a drink of her sprite and said, "oooh that is some nasty sprite", thinking that she was just repeating what I said and that there was nothing wrong with her drink, I took a big sip. She was right, it was some nasty sprite. It was just carbonation. Of course when, I told the story to Raigan and Kerrigan they had to taste it themselves. What is it about humans that we have to experience something that smells or tastes bad for ourselves?
