Journal ellem's Journal: [Danny Says] Danny's Fool Proof Excuse 10
Recently the family was at a hotel. I asked Danny to get me my shoes his reply was, "No. I can't. I'm naked." He was, in fact, naked at that point.
Several days later I asked him to do something:
Me: Danny, beer me!
Danny: No, I can't. I'm naked.

First you say naked, then, when asked for clarification, you announce that you are the 'Nay kid'.
So yes, you do get to screw with their heads. ;-)
Works for me (Score:2)
When I get home in the evening, one of the first things I do is take off my work clothes and put on a pair of sweat pants, sans shirt, shoes or much of anything else. Apparently, I do this very quickly; or so my wife tells me. The end result is that she will want to get me to go out and do something but will pull up short because of my now half-dressed state.
