Mad skills

Me: "Kendall, I'm going to take a shower and would appreciate it if you could stop practicing gymnastics moves until I'm out."

Kendall: "Oh no mom, what I'm doing is super easy."

Me: "Still.  Accidents happen and if you get hurt, I won't be able to hear you."

Kendall: "I'm not going to get hurt. I have MAD SKILLS here!"

Me: "Yes, but the other day you managed to hit your nose with your knee hard enough for it to bleed."

Kendall: "Mooooom, I can handle a bloody nose!"

Me: "Ok. Then I guess just don't bleed all over the house."

Kendall (saluting me): "Aye aye cap'n."
