Yeah, I liked him. Although at times I wondered why I seemed to know better than he at a significantly younger age.
And I'm not sure I'm the right age to give Jesus tap dancing lessons. The phrase I recall was Christ on stilts. I guess I should have been commenting about how he was a clown or something due to my age.
I'm mid 30s. Long lighters weren't a thing at that point in time IIRC. We had those foot long match sticks that snapped all the time. Except in my story situation, we ran out of those. Instead of lighting a twig on fire to poke in, I built character and learned a lesson. I think my parents bought one of those long lighters with a flashlight and bendy neck about 3-4 years later. The first time we used it, my mom literally said out of the blue something along the lines of how it would forever save my hair from being burnt.
I don't recall exactly what she said. The memory is corrupted. I do know that I was fuming after that comment.
