Paper Watch, Day 9

[pegkerr]

Remember this entry, last year? Rob opened his birthday present in the living room, and then never picked up the wrapping paper. I finally brought it to his attention after thirteen days.

I was curious to learn how long it would be before he picked up the paper on the living room floor after unwrapping his present this year.

So far, it has been nine days.

How long do you think it will take him to notice and pick up the wrapping paper?


[Poll #877232]

Edited to add: Of course, if/when he reads this LJ entry, it won't quite work as a blind experiment. Still, I will be curious to see the poll results.

Man you just need to go though your house smackin' people.

Whine. smacking.

More whining? More smacking.

Spousal insensitivity? Smacking.

Backtalk from the kids. Smacking.

I bet all three of them would straighten up in like...no time. :)

Mmm. Maybe, although I'm not convinced.

More importantly, I don't want to become the sort of person who would do that.

A little corrective treatment goes a long way. I'm not advocating beating people (unless they pay). But putting the old foot down, or the palm in motion does work.

And besides, at least one of the girls out-ranks her....

She'd get into a helluva lot of trouble with sensei if she used it against me!
