MOTY.
Because I can't watch my children 24/7, they caught the end of Jaws. I don't even know which Jaws it was. I do know it was the one where he blows up the tank in Jaws mouth and as he does he says 'Smile you son of a #$#%% (because it was on TV they said Bucket instead)'. I know this because I heard them upstairs saying to each other 'Smile you son of a Bucket'. I listened a bit more and sure enough they were saying it to each other and laughing hysterically. So I called them downstairs and asked them where they had heard that. And they explained what I had mentioned above, catching the end of the movie. I told them it wasn't something we should be saying because 'bucket' was a replacement for a bad word in that saying, a bad 'b' word. Calvin asked if is was 'butthead' to which I replied yes (I mean why tell them what it really was if I don't have to...right?) that was the bad word and we can't be saying any longer. I haven't heard it since, but I am sure it will pop again some day at one of the inopportune times, like church or oh in front of their teacher.
