The Sunday Funnies

We watched a kids' movie with a know-it-all character.  At one point the characters are looking for an exit, and the know-it-all gives the origin of the word "exit", something along the lines of:  "Exit, from the Latin exitus act or means of going out, equivalent to exi-, variant stem of exīre to go out".  Dorothy gave a hearty laugh and explained, "He's funny.  That's not real."

We requested that Google play a Christmas song, and oddly, it played a baseball song.  Dorothy said, "This isn't a Christmas song!  It's Bring Me Out to the Ballgame!"
