Reminds me of the time The Blonde and I were going from Oahu to the Big Island and the TSA guys wanted to take the little light-up sneakies off a 2 year old.
The kid started to cloud up and mom had to reassure him he'd get them back.
Given the TSA's rep, that was going out on a limb.
Synova, when your kids were toddlers and before becoming potty trained, did they ever go behind a chair to fill their diapers in privacy? A couple of my kids did, and if I'd go over to see what they were up to, they'd wave a little hand at me to "go way!"
You don't think reporters serve a crucial function?
"He acts like a remorseful reporter who inadvertently asked Obama a tough question at a press conference."
FAIL. There has never been a reporter who inadvertently asked Obama a tough question at a press conference...and I'm damnded if I can think of any who have done so intentionally.
Reminds me of a short story from the 70s. A reporter is interviewing, for live TV, the mother of a murdered family. At the end of the interview, the reporter does an internal sigh, and spouts the then-mandatory disclaimer: "The emotional behavior of the person just seen has been artificially enhanced."

Reporters make me cry too.
What an annoying reporter.
The kids looks like Yoda.
Hysterical! Poor kid.

While a generalization, reporters are assholes.
I was wondering when you would get to this.
Creepy.
Call the cops.
What an old face on that kid!

Little fucker looks like Chuckie. If I was that reporter, I'd be watching my back...
That baby was taking a poop when the reporter accosted him.
I wonder how much that reporter hates himself - rightfully so - in the rare quiet moment when he can't hold the truth at bay with noise.
Oh, you never know what's going to set a kid off. They get over it.
The thinking really hard look, though, definitely filling a diaper.
That kid is part of the 47%, and the reporter is a Mormon.

If they did I never caught them at it. :)

"Damned," not "damnded."
