Boys will be Boys

At a recent conversation with 2 of my nephews (ages 12 and 10) this is what I heard:
Me: How'd you get the black eye? (this ? directed at 10 year old)
10 yr old: My brother.
12 yr old: I DIDN'T DO anything.
10 yr old: My brother was on me and I had to go REAL bad.
Me: Your brother was ON you?
12 yr old: That's what I'm saying; I DIDN'T DO anything to him, I was just sitting on him.
10 yr old jumps in: And I TOLD him, I HAVE to go sooo bad if you don't let me up I will pee on you.
12 yr old: So he starts trying to get loose and he hit his eye on my knee. I didn't DO anything.
This entire convo cracked me up!! (probably because I'm not their mom!!!)

there's nothing quite like child-rational is there. it's like literalism taken to absolute extreme.
