One of your favorite videos is Bambi. There's a scene where Thumper the bunny is trying to teach Bambi the deer how to say, 'bird'. Bambi keeps saying 'bir'. Thumper keeps repeating 'bird' in an attempt to teach Bambi how to say it correctly. Finally he accentuates the 'd' sound.
Bambi: Bir
Thumper: Uh-uh. Bir-duh.
Well one day I re-enacted the scene to see if you could remember where it was from and you couldn't. When I told you it was Thumper you couldn't stop laughing. Ever since then you've repeated the scene. But I actually re-enacted it incorrectly. My version went,
Bambi: Bir
Thumper: No no no no no. Bir duh
And that's how you say it. Except you have no pauses at all. Timing is everything in comedy and when you say it, it comes out as "bir no no no no birda". It's quite funny. When your grandparents stayed over to watch you they thought this was funny too. I called granny yesterday (it's her birthday; she's 75) and she said that grandpa and her keep repeating that scene now too! She said they couldn't stop laughing when they think of it. Well here is a video of my trying to get you to say it.
