Me: Oh hi!
K: Can we go outside and play bubbles?
Me: Not yet. It's still raining. When the rain stops, we can go out.
K: What is the rain doing?
Me: The rain is raining.
K: What is it doing?
Me: It's raining. On The Just. And on the unjust fella. But mostly on The Just.
K: Why does it do that on The Just?
Me: Because The Unjust stole The Just's umbrella.
K: Oh yes! I will take that umbrella to Nana's house and I won't get wet.
At least now we know FOR SURE that she'll be a lawyer.

Bwahaha! Must be nice to have a straight-man that actually hasn’t heard all the jokes yet. It won’t be long before she’s demanding long detailed explanations of jokes, and the fun is over.
Either a lawyer, a theologian, or a philosopher. At least some sort of sophist.
I was thinking more along the lines of thief….
And yes, having a straight-faced straight-man is a wonderful thing. She already asks for explanations, but my explanations only perpetuate the humour.
