In a home video of me when I was three, I sang the "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" lyrics as "Good tidings we bring, to you and your kid." Until my mom corrected me, I never even knew the word "kin" existed.

- Maryland was actually a huge amusement park, i.e. Merry-Land, like Disneyland. — Julianne

- I thought if you point the video camera at the TV then both the video camera and the TV will explode.
