alarmed

In Costco last night, my 4-year-old asked me what would happen if he opened "that door". 

"Well," I replied, "that door says 'Emergency Exit.  Alarm will sound when door is opened.'"

"Oh!" he said delightedly, "Den will everyone go running away yelling, "Aaaahhh, I am so alarmed!"?"

Well, yes, I expect that we would.  But only if we're all as articulate as a 4-year-old.

And now Clinton and I have a lovely inside joke where we look at each other, flail our arms at head height, and say loudly "I am so alarmed. I am so alarmed."

Oh, I am so thrilled to have contributed to the joke quota at your household! This comment absolutely made our Sunday morning.
