My GF's daugther
When she was 7 (so last summer) has decided that if she doesn't know what a word means then it must be a bad word. Case in point:

I stuck my finger out to her's (ET style) and did the voice. She didn't get it, so I inform her its from a movie called ET, and her mam explains that it's iconic. Little 7 year old doesn't know what this means, cue "DON'T SAY THAT! ITS A BAD WORD!"

"What is?" says I, "Iconic?"
"DON'T SAY THAT!"
"Iconic iconic iconic iconic iconic iconic iconic iconic."
She runs over, grabs both my hands, tries to climb onto my lap, looks me right in the eye and through clenched teeth says "If you don't stop saying bad words I'm telling granma!"

All the while my GF is having a fit of the giggles and that pronouncement of granma induced doom set me off too, I even fell off the arm of the couch.

Why do I get the image of a certain group of knights when I read that?
