IMPROBABLY NAMED STUFF Prompt 10

 Look at all of us in the Lazy Boy!

                                          

















We think it's funny how some things in your house
especially things you sit on for instance -
can have many different names
In our house, we have a couch but my Grandma
calls hers, that's almost the same, a sofa
and my Great-grandma used to call hers a chesterfield
But they all look pretty much the same to us

But a really funny thing - both of us think
Has to be the recliners - you know those fat chairs
That you can make go back and back and almost lay in them?
Some of them even have a little handle on the side
to help you lay them back? Mostly we've heard them
called a recliner, or a lounger, but Grandma and Grandpa
call theirs a "lazy boy" which makes us giggle like crazy
'cause first of all - how can they tell if a chair is a boy anyhow?
And why do they think it is tired? Or lazy? Isn't that what lazy means...

We think so but we're not sure - we just think it's pretty funny
And maybe rude - still, we love it when we get to sit in their
Lazy boy - hah- lazy boy - isn't that just the funniest thing ever?

The Brothers Dragonosaurus (and their wizardly granny) are breathing ancient fire, fairly chomping at their paleolithic roots to hear what you have to say ...
