@JustJake: I second that. In fact, the whole Bashcraft family should have their own show. Seriously, think about it. An American living in Japan with a hot wife, adorable kids and a job that involves video games and seeking out "maximum risky" topics all over asia.

You think anyone in the 18-40 yo male demographic would be interested in a show like that? Sponsors would be all over that shit. Do it!

PS. glad to hear that Mrs. Bashcraft is back home with you and mini.

And the reason why the belly is so big is because of the 3 tiny chinese making the clothes after 3 months, they are eaten at 6 months, meanwhile their machines are burnt by the evil fluid lost right before birth.

I use to talk with my parent about astronomy: talking about black holes, the galaxy spiral shape, how long take to fly to a star in C speed.

A that age, I whas in the know the death of dinosaurs was not a asteroids, A damn asteroid has a orbit, and don't fall into planet, so was a meteoroid.

I whas exceptical about the existence of God, but I mostly think that it exist, because other people think that exist. With all my knogment about the astronomy, the existence of God whas inelegant to me.

There are tons of people that think God is real, but I think is beacause old dog's don't learn new tricks. I hope one day a therapy is invented, so old people become as smart as 4 years old childrens, and become able again to learn new tricks. If only, because this will make learning new langs really easy :D

Hehe, if I were you I'd start documenting all of this stuff inside a family album or something.
Your son says some very out-of-a-sitcom-character-who's-young-and-often-displays-its-misunderstanding-of-the -world stuff.

@RPGr: Cosby is definatly the first thing that comes to mind.

@RPGr:

... that was weird.

skitzogreg

Kids Logic = Unbeatable. Don't even try to question it. Flawless stuff!

Shiryu

I think your kid will be hunted / kidnapped by Cosby if you keep posting this stuff up.

If Cosby wasn't alive, I'd swear he'd reincarnated as your son.

RPGr

@geekgrrl: Photoshop the tape to add pants?

Zaos

I don't like kids but the conversations you and your family have (Mini-bash included) are amazing.

Sean Bryant

That was too cute! This really put a smile on my face. Thanks for sharing, Bash.

Menolly

@geekgrrl: Never! Never! I don't think I've ever been the same since I saw a live birth at the Health Sciences Museum in eighth grade. Though, it definitely gave me an appreciation for what women go through. Just, wait a little while, BAsh, before showing Mini-Bash anything like that. I'd even let him play GTA before I showed him something that disturbing.

peAr_nectAr

lmao That kid should have his own show.

JustJake

i was born naked...what does THAT mean?

icepick314

It may not be related to video games, but that was one of the funniest things I've read in quite a while. hehe.

sariah

I'm glad Mrs. Bash is back home! Congrats!

Funny story, as always.

Billkwando

Why does the word 'pants' always make me laugh? I guess I never mentally progressed beyond the 6th grade.

Darth Navster

Thanks for that one, Bash. You just made my day. :)

Doomstalk

if you recorded the birth.. now's the time to whip out the tape ;)

geekgrrl

It, seems logical to me, Captain.

Mini-Bash got you there, though, I'm surprised you didn't know if he was born with pants or not though...

Master Saji

I used to think girls were born with long hair, boys with short.

PrimetimeFool

Gold. Complete awesomeness.

peacefuloutrage

Charming little devil.

AndrewMP

Heh, great story. Children never cease to amaze me.

Angryrider

Very cute conversation!

jay427

It's cute what kids say at that age!

pimpsc00by

And I was born wearing a 3 piece suite....suit, I said suit!

Dannon

That's some ultrasound logic there.

Lezard

Wow, no wonder Mrs Bashcraft gets sick when she's pregnant, there are sets of clothing forming in there.

phicaluk

lol

Krumm

God doesn't need to see that.

Grumps

whew! good to know she's back home (again)! hope it's all smooth sailing from here!

Atomu

Why is this here?
How is this gaming related?
In before Rogz.

Amino

Bash, you and you're family are awesome.

LionheartAce

kid logic is funny.

GFX-187

@tehFluffz:

Yeah, or even a blog on the internet, that would be hilarious.

phicaluk

@icepick314:

Exhibitionist?

DCSimian

@AnnePackrat: Lipstick. I don't think many when where lipstick, unless they're. . . you know. . . clowns.

enigma89

bash: most parents record there child's moments through Video so that when they are older, they can showcase them to there girlfriend/boyfiend.

I can only imagine the horror Mini-bash is experiencing when he's 23, not so mini, and is rereading the archives of this blog :D

huginn

Don't forget the bow. Girls always have a bow, how else do we know who's Mrs. Pacman and who's Pacman?

AnnePackrat

I used to think cats were girls and dogs were boys.

Spaceboy

Very nice.

But what if you were born wearing a pantsuit?

Or capris?

Then what? :)

@Amino: Buhbye.

Spoony Bard

Just goes to show you how gender is socially constructed. I bet most adults would have a hard time explaining how they could tell a baby girl from a boy if they couldn't see their sex organ or if they "miss-matched" dress styles.

almarota1979

This kid is HERO!

kennyd1

Happy news, Bash!! Hopefully she's home to stay this time!

The legend that is Mini-Bash grows. That kid is simply made of win.

HootieMac: Section 9 Reject

Art Linkletter would be proud if he knew.

battra92

So thats how doctors find out if you are a boy or a girl.

HELLSRIDER

Has no one mentioned pantsu yet? No one? Think of the children!

ach77

Hahah your kid's hilarious Ashcraft.

NeoAkira

Guess we know who wheres the pants in the family

bangbangblah

Aw, that's super cute! :)

Kids that age always come up with the cutest things.

Glad Mrs. Bash is home!

Naia

You really need to publish a "Best of Mini-Bash" coffee table book...maybe free with his paper DS.

@almarota1979: "Just goes to show you how gender is socially constructed. I bet most adults would have a hard time explaining how they could tell a baby girl from a boy if they couldn't see their sex organ or if they "miss-matched" dress styles. "

Most adults don't just have a hard time explaining what to look for, they have a hard time telling them apart. We don't dress our girl in pink very often. Multiple times daily we'd hear "Oh, what a handsome boy. What's his name?". I enjoy the the look on their faces when I tell them he's called Isabella.

myspambox

@Amino: The writers always leave notes for each other on this site. :/

Soriya

Awww... Thats sweet. :]

Soriya

@Interstella5555: I'm in for 3!

HootieMac: Section 9 Reject

@Amino: Your a complete moron, this is the day/night note, its a regular feature on Kotaku

Mini-bash is the FUCKING MAN!

excel_excel

Hilarious.

belo

@enigma89:

Ichiban!

Saiko!

Billkwando

@Amino: "Why is this here?"

I think the real question here is: why are you here?

The awesomeness of a baby born with tiny pants on trumps gaming relevancy anyway.

Robotube

@myspambox: Yeah babies are hard to tell for gender. That's always embarassing.

Billkwando

@enigma89: Ah, hella typos! I meant "I don't think many men wear lipstick".

enigma89

@Lezard: I see what you did there. :)

Ash, your stories are entertaining as always.

Silent Predator

When I was his age I thought sperm was air-born (Damn "Look Who's Talking" Movies), so as far as I'm concerned Mini-Bash is more competent than I was/am.

@Amino:

I'd really hate to think you were just joking. The "In before Rogs" gives me the impression that you were, but the lack of a ;) leaves it pretty ambiguos.

Pezdispenser

That is adorable and hilarious. Some of the things kid's say... ;)

Shyguy

@icepick314: Lmao this made me spit out my water at work.

The darnest things, kids say.

karasu is my homeboy

i was born with a controller when i came out what does that mean?

hellfire6618

@Bash: Do you and Mrs. Bash want to know Micro-Bash's gender before he/she's born, or are you going to leave it as a surprise?

ly000001

@Robotube:

Pardon the short post, but QFT.

skitzogreg

I still have the pants I was born with.

M

That is so cute and adorable :oD

valhum

lololololol...lo

TheHeartless

hahaha mini-bash is one hellava kid...and good to hear about the Missus

i can/can't wait to have kids....i've always loved them, but alas - just turning 24 and trying to get 2 careers started (with the woman and I trying to get things settled down a little in our lives) wouldn't be the ideal time for us....i'd like to wait, because my parents were 17 when i was born....my mom only being 17 for 3 weeks LMAO

drlard

Ah, child logic. It never ceases to entertain me.

@Amino: As the Japanese say, Sayonara.

KM91

That's cute! :D

ST19AG_WGreymon

Mini-Bash HAS to have writers feeding him his lines. The stuff he says is just too perfect.

Kavatar

@Billkwando:

+ Watch video

Billkwando

Classic; you can't make this stuff up. And he seemed so sure of himself too.

gcZanmato

Mi nephew once said

"Boys have wennies. Girls have Vaginas"

Where she get that information, I rather no now. And she's 4

cjlopez

LOL!

These past few days I'm wondering if I wasn't born with a full computer set...

Poor mom.

Bokusatsu_Tenshi

You need to teach mini-bash that guys aren't born with pants, we're born with money. It's a girl if there's no money, but a lot of random useless trinkets instead...

7=¬þ..

phor11

You should teach Mini-bash that boys are born not with pants, but with full, manly beards. Beards which wrap around us and become our top layers of skin.

Jshaw

i bet this would make a great comic that'd be a lot like Family Circus but actually funny. go figure.

pandafresh

@rawg: You don't really have to look very far or very hard to find something that's "Maximum Risky" in Japan.

Giolon

lolerskatez.

artofwar420

Mini-Bash is the next Karl Pilkington.

klew

An absolute gem of a story! Thanks for the LOL Bash

Zoobear

@Lezard: You did not get nearly enough recognition for what is clearly the post of the week here. Brilliant, just brilliant!

And a great story. I can only hope my boy grows up to be so precocious. And awesome.

2NinjasTapedTogether

lol. Made me chuckle :)

goldwings

I demand that boy be born in pants and girls in dresses from now on. Genes will decide your jeans.

SaanZ

And the scary thing is, a lot of people don't outgrow that mentality.

cheeses

"i was born with a controller when i came out what does that mean?"
@hellfire6618: That you love playing with your joystick ;P

@bashcraft:
At least mini-bash knows that he wears the pants in the family...when he's not playing as the dog!
