I was round a friend's house while his wife was out
As he was involved in putting his youngest to bed and his second-youngest in the bath, I was left alone with his eldest son (probably about 6) in the kitchen. He regarded me sceptically and asked me what kind of TV shows I liked to watch. I replied that I was a big fan of Transformers, but he'd not heard of that, so I said I also really liked Star Wars as I knew that the Clone Wars cartoon had been pretty popular with kids around that time, but again he shook his head. Finally, without much hope I suggested Star Trek, only be met with a completely blank look. I decided I needed to change tack here and asked the lad what he liked to watch. He stopped to think about it for a minute, then replied with absolute certainty: "I like violence."
