During dinner, the Big Kid asked everyone to name their favorite actor.
Spouse: Tom Hanks. Incredible range.
Me: Seriously? Range? He plays some version of himself in every movie. He's "Affable Charming Guy." Like George Clooney.
Big Kid: So who's your favorite, Mom?
Me: Tie. Alan Rickman, Gary Oldman.
Big Kid: Gary Oldman?
Spouse: Commission Gordon. Sirius Black.
Big Kid: THAT WAS THE SAME GUY?
Me: EXACTLY.
Little Kid: The guy from "Sharknado."
Everyone else: Huh?
Little Kid: My favorite actor is the guy from "Sharknado." The one with the chainsaw.
Everyone else: IAN ZIERING?
Little Kid: If that's his name, yes.
[Stunned silence.]
If any of us think of a response, I'll post an update. But don't hold your breath.
