"Baby poo. Baby food. Just warm it up. Throw it on the floor. You don't need the baby... Stupid. Shite. Poo."

"Babies don't bounce. They don't bounce! Shame. It'd be much more fun if they bounce."

"I think you should sit down. Surely your ankles can't take the weight."

"Come back. Come back. Come baaaaack."

"Tick tock tick tock... Everybody's waiting. It's time for me to shine."

__________

Karen's note: That last one, I was doing a kakuro puzzle on the computer next to Adam, so lots of mouse clicking.

We had just gotten the wonderful news last night that a good friend is pregnant, so perhaps that explains the baby theme? I don't know how she'd feel about him wanting to use her impending child as a basketball, though....

    My bro says funny stuff in his sleep, too. I used to walk by his room when we were kids & hear him mumbling something random, and I'd poke into his room and try to steer him in a funny direction ... sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't (but when it did, it sure amused me!).

    I don't think you'll be asked to babysit anytime soon ;-)

    But "I think you should sit down. Surely your ankles can't take the weight." strikes me as both hysterical and insulting (as I'm trying to lose weight).

    It's no wonder this has become such a cultural phenomenon... These nightly ramblings are truly hilarious. I'd imagine you could make a tidy sum off the t-shirts and coffee mugs. The whole "I think you should sit down..." rant reminds me of me and my father cracking jokes on each other. I hope to see this one on a shirt soon, as cheeky as it is. Thank you for deciding to turn this into a blog. Cheers!

    I wonder if the 'sit down' one isn't actually about someone overweight, but a pregnant woman?

    Since there is a bit of a baby theme, and swollen ankles are often an issue with pregnant mothers, maybe he's talking to a pregnant woman?

    This is perhaps the first site on the web that almost made me pee myself laughing.

    Karen/Adam don't pay any attention to the trolls and haters who think your blog is fake. By the way, you notice they're almost always "anonymous"?

    I know you're legit because my wife said in her sleep (when she was an assistant manager at a pharmacy) "If they can't get you at one end of your life, they'll get you at the OTHER end of the aisle!", smacked her lips a few times, rolled over and started quietly snoring.

    And one time I semi-awoke to her pushing me off her because I was trying to bite her face. "Why were you biting me?!?" she said. "Because you were stabbing me with your EYES!" I replied, and then actually woke up. Wow.

    Keep posting. I'll keep laughing

Then, at lunchtime today (it's Wednesday afternoon in Australia), I was on the escalator behind a very large woman with smallish ankles....I almost started walking backwards so she wouldn't hear my sputtering giggles as I tried to get the STM quote out of my head and work out how I could possibly explain my behaviour if called upon to do so. Oh, the pain!!!
