8 yo's latest story is about Patrick P. Penguinsen, the Pimpin' Penguin, and his gang of flightless birds. Me: Do you know what a pimp is? 8 yo: Yes. [I decide not to ask.] Me: Well, don't talk about them at school or other people's houses, ok? 8 yo: Ok, no pimps in public.

My older son learned the plot to star wars at age 3 from other 3-year-olds at preschool, who had learned it from older siblings. It was hilarious garbled by the time he explained it to me.

Also, younger siblings typically spend a year of their life in a headlock. They learn faster.

I wish Twitter had labels for tweets, and I could get notifications on the labels, I would alert for parent-takes :)
