~6 years ago I got new countertops, and while they did the bulk of the cutting in their facility, they did do a few cuts in my front yard, creating a huge cloud of dust. The main parts of the counter arrived ready to assemble, but I think they cut a spanning piece for behind the stove, spanning the counters on either side.
My 8yo son came out to see what was going on, looked at the workers doing the cut without masks, and said "silicosis ain't no joke" and went back inside. I've taught him well.

- linsomniac 3y agoI'm struggling to figure out why it would seem so implausible. I got the phrasing from AvE on youtube, and I've said it to him several times during our DIYing together because I'm trying to educate him on using PPE.
- alvah 3y agoYou phrased it exactly like the many stories posted on social media that end with a young kid expressing virtue in the words of an adult. You have other skeptical replies, so it’s not just me.
- linsomniac 3y agoI guess I should also have told the story about the time I had thrown together some quick tables for a yard sale and after the yard sale he decided they would make a great stage, and was showing off in front of his friend, standing on the table. He says "I am walking on the ta..." but gets cut off as the table collapses. So not everything he says is wisdom beyond his years...
