It's exactly this kind of weird, fucked up thought that I find myself having since having a child...
So this half terms "homework" for my 8 year old is to make and paint a replica of a volcano..of course this means that I have to make and paint a replica of a volcano, and you know what? After international day, the emoji themed disco with full face paints and world book day looming...I have to admit...I couldn't be arsed...
But last years "make a titanic replica" was a great success, I have a reputation to uphold...so we made the volcano, but it wasn't great...it needed something else, something no one else had...
And so I found myself serious.y considering sellotaping a vibrator to the inside to cause a lifelike earthquake...what the fuck?
Soon after the visions of me being called into the headmistress office and confronted with the vibrator and a heard of traumatised kids came flooding though my mind...,I mean, I would disguise it, of course...but after a few times of the kids setting it off, no doubt it would pop out of its disguise and the kids would SCREAM!!!
However, it did strike me that it could be for this very purpose that vibrators have that "intermittent" setting....I mean, it has to be for SOMETHING...right?
Anyway, it seems we will have a mechanism free, non vibrating volcano, but I thought it was worth sharing my thoughts before I go fully insane.
