You Smell, I Smell

Conversation between Girl and me, riding in the car, listening to the radio:

Me: That sounds like Justin Bieber.

Girl: That’s because it IS Justin Bieber.

Me: Wait, did he just say, “You smell, I smell?”

Girl: No, why would he say that? He said, “You smile, I smile.”

Me: Sounds like “you smell, I smell” to me.

Girl: Mom, you have a very bad sense of hearing.

Me: There he goes again. Hear it? You smell, I smell.

Girl: Do you have two ears?

Me: Of course I do.

Girl: I think you only have one. Because one ear hears the first part of the word, and the other hears the last part of the word. I think you only have one ear.

Me: I have two ears.

Girl: Then maybe the eardrum on one of them isn’t working.

Me: Everything’s working but it still sounds like “you smell, I smell” to me.

Girl: Can you hear the “ds” when I say “words?”

Me: Yes.

Girl: Good.
