Beer
Nephew doesn't like beer. Or any alcohol, for that matter. He's six, but he's already made up his own mind.
We had beer one night, the grown-ups, and Nephew was awfully curious as to what Uncle
ralmathon was drinking. And he wanted to drink some too. I told him to smell it, and tell me what he thought.
He sniffed. "Yuck!" he said.
"It tastes just like it smells," I said.
He made a worse face.
Some months separated, he was wondering about the vodka that I was pouring a little bit of into something. I told him that it was called vodka, and it was alcohol, and it was like beer only stronger. I dipped the tip of my finger into the vodka, and touched it to his tongue.
He scrubbed out his mouth with water and a paper towel, and looked very disgusted with the entire proceedings.
The other day, he brought home a song from school: "Nine Coronas". I asked him if he knew that this song was about beer. He looked disgusted and said, "You tricked me!" loudly.
He hasn't been singing that song anymore.
