Today, after telling my audience of preschoolers and parents that I'd been performing magic since I was a kid in 1995, a 4-year-old got more laughter and applause than I did in my entire act by gasping, "1995? You should be dead by now!" FML

Kids say the funniest things. Once, a 2 year old girl I was babysitting pointed at my boobs and went "why are your apples bigger than my mommy's??" Sometimes you've just gotta laugh because that's really all you can do

You should have made her disappear in a puff of smoke ;)

I'm very sorry that happened to you, but it was actually funny and adorable what he said. Hope things go well for you OP!

Well it's a good thing you decided to be a magician not a standup comedian, if you get owned by a four-year-old while on stage. Clearly there was nothing up your sleeve after all

Damn hecklers, always stealing the show.

I know the feeling, OP. An old friend of mines younger brother was like that. He thought, by the time he'd be in high school, that all of us would be dead. Please note: this was my second year in high school and his sister's 8th grade year before she transitions into high school herself.

I was born in 1985 so I'm basically prehistoric

I graduated High school in 1995. Ive been dead for about 6 years now.

that's what you get for being an old fart. YDI for looking old

you should have told them that you have returned from dead...game over...

That's actually pretty funny. Little kids have no concept of time whatsoever. Once, when I was little, I asked my mother if she was a Pilgrim. She was born in 1955.

Just wait until they find out their parents were born in the 80's

That's cute. You have to remember, little ones have never known any year that wasn't the 2000s. A girl I used to baby sit once asked me, "What year were you born, two thousand what?" And when I replied with "1992," her eyes got big and wide and she exclaimed, "But houses weren't even invented then!" And I just laughed. For a kid who's never known anything but the 2000s, I guess the 90s sounds pretty far away.
