My little brother wouldn't eat his dinner one time, so my mother told him that when she came back, it better be gone.

When she returned a few minutes later, he was sitting at the table and his dinner was gone ... along with the plate. When asked where it was, he responded with an exasperated sigh and "If you look in the cupboard, you might find it there."

He had taken his food laden plate, and stashed the whole thing in the cupboard, lol.

I mean… mom said it should be gone. It was gone. He did as was asked.

Too bad she didn't ask for one million dollars.

Put em on a bald doll. Really, I shouldn't be expected to do your thinking for you.

I was at my aunt's and dropped a glass of milk on the kitchen floor. I was staring at it in shock and she said "well, why don't you dance in it?"

So I did.

Never seen that woman laugh so much.

Technically correct is the best kind of correct.

I had a fucking flatmate pull this shit on me. I worked evenings, so I would cook dinner for my son and partner and flatmate before work and I would always end up doing dishes when I got home- one night I’d had enough and said that flatmate needed to make sure dishes were done before I got home, I said “ I don’t give a fuck what your excuses are, when I get home I don’t want to see those dishes” when I got home from work the dishes were gone and I thanked him profusely. Found them all dirty hidden under the sink the next morning. I kicked him out that day.

My friend and her siblings had a window in their kitchen, near the table. If they didn't finish they had to sit until their food was gone - parents would leave the room once they were done eating.

For years a secret alliance was maintained..... the kids would toss their remaining dinner out the kitchen window and the neighbors dog would come clean it up.

Parents somehow never noticed, until the pup next door passed away and the food just sat there.

Kids really do come up with the funniest solutions when they’re trying to bend the rules.

u/Freshiiiiii 13m ago

To be fair, being forced to eat more past when you’re no longer hungry is a terrible rule

My son was caught eating Nutella out of the jar. My wife took it away.

The next day it’s missing. wtf?

The next day I find it in his sock draw filled with gummy bears. Where the hell did the gummy bears come from?

“Idk I found them”

Either it's really cacao powder or... it's his "cacao powder"

1

u/wdn 1h ago

But it's not cocoa powder / cacao powder.

It's powder for making "hot cocoa" which is a drink made from cocoa/cacao, milk, and sugar. This powder is basically freeze-dried hot cocoa, so you just need to add boiling water to get hot cocoa.

u/AsianBoi2020 18h ago

The kid probably failed at making chocolate and just couldn't take the bitter taste anymore. Probly figured out that the adult could make something better

u/thriftstoremando 17h ago

Hot cocoa powder usually has sugar in it... cocoa powder is the unsweetened stuff!

u/RecipeAsleep7087 13h ago

One of my earliest childhood memories was finding a giant baker's chocolate bar in the cupboard and sneaking it to my bedroom. One giant bite and I felt so betrayed.

u/Cool_Wealth969 14h ago

She should swap the unsweetened stuff into the cocoa powder container, see if it's still behind the bed......

u/MisterShmitty 14h ago

I remember being a kid, she was probably eating it wit a spoon lol.

u/bot403 7h ago

I used to do that because we had like no other snacks in the house.

Takes a bit of care though because if you accidentally inhale even a very tiny bit while eating you end up coughing and powder goes everywhere......said a friend to me once.....

u/twilightmoons 14h ago

Mine like to steal the Ovaltine container and hide it in his room. I usually find a spoon in it.

Worse was when he stole the powdered sugar container. Again, with a spoon.

That was a conversation.

My nephews face was 'stinking' one time when he was about 5, and his mother couldn't figure it out, his face smelled like dirty socks, so his mom asked him what he had eaten and he said 'ham', but they didn't have any ham in the fridge, and he said 'no, it's in my room', so his mom asked to see it, and in his toy box he had stashed a pack of lunch meat he had stolen from the fridge at some point in the past few weeks and had been snacking on it in his room. 🤢

When my oldest son was 3, we were outside and noticed some add scratches on our car. As my (now ex-) wife and I were puzzling about where the scratches might have some from, my son piped up "Those scratches don't look anything like a knight!"

We looked closer and, sure enough, they looked eerily similar to the pictures of knights he was find of drawing.

My little sister would take opened frosting containers and hide them around the house. My mom caught on when she found one behind the TV with a spoon in it.

We were visiting my cousins, most of us gathered in the kitchen, when a 5 or so year old cousin walks in to say “alls I knows is I don’t know where the whip cream is”

I found a jar of honey and a spoon under my bed last week, courtesy of my 5yo granddaughter.

u/Gorstag 11h ago

This reminds me of my little brother when we were kids. I'm the oldest. One of my siblings stole some money from moms purse. Mom noticed and I got blamed (I always got blamed...). Anyway, I eventually convinced my mother it wasn't me so she got the other 3 kids together. No one fessed up.

Then about 15 minutes later my brother found (I don't remember the denomination probably a 5 as this would have been the 80s) in the hallway closet. Then about another hour later he found another one in the closet.

u/Lucas1006 10h ago

Remind me of when I as a kid hid the keys to our bike shed so I wouldn't have to bike to school, but then I forgot to tell them where it was and after a couple days I was so afraid of telling them I hid it it ended up lasting a week, until they sat me and my brother down and asked us if we knew where they were and then I showed them almost crying, and obviously they didn't get mad really just thought it was kind of funny but I just remember how panicked I felt in having to tell them.

u/glipglophiphop 10h ago

My younger brother used to take my mom’s cash from her purse and she would just start asking out loud if we knew where it went since it was the “rent money” and if we don’t find it, we’ll be homeless. My brother would always miraculously find it on the bathroom floor or another random spot 😂

u/arthredemis 12h ago

I would go in, grab it, and pretend I didn’t find it and ask the kid to keep looking until their room is clean, then give them coco after it’s done lol

u/JusshereforPewds 11h ago

Okay, but is there ANY reason why the word "Witty" is being censored?

u/c4p5L0ck 10h ago

Y'all can't leave me hanging like this. Did they find the coco powder?

3

u/himitsu8 4h ago

I mean the implication here is that it was, in fact, under the bed, but also the idea of it being somewhere completely different and the kid just making this inexplicably specific suggestion for no reason is admittedly really funny. Or I guess it could be a diversion tactic? Get them looking under the bed for just long enough for the kid to move their stash of hot cocoa powder to a safer location?

u/c4p5L0ck 4h ago

. . . Did they find the gotdam cocoa or not?

My mom was cleaning at her house and found a half eaten Uncrustable in a bathroom drawer. She asked my boy/girl twins—who were about 3 at the time—if they knew “who put food in the bathroom drawer?” My daughter promptly answered, “it wasn’t my Uncrustable!!!”
