Note: if you've never seen "Dora the Explorer," the following will make no sense whatsoever.

Shawn likes to play online roleplaying games. Among other things, it's an opportunity for a group of friends who now live in different cities to have fun together. Me, I don't play, but since they've set it up so they can talk to each other while playing, I can hear them talking over Shawn's speaker system.

Yesterday, apparently they were in a situation where an archer was taking potshots at them from a distance.

One of our friends (who has two children aged 7 and 3) asked, "If we say, 'Sniper, no sniping!' three times, will he go away?"


Like I said, if you've never seen "Dora," you won't get it. Me, I almost hurt myself laughing.
