Immediately upon entering the elevator, "She did it.  Who me?  No, I didn't.  She did.  Wait, who?  Her."

Emmieism's

Overheard while Emmie was playing LOL (and serving as the voice to various characters):

Mom LOL:  Opposites attract.

Daughter LOL:  No, they don't.

Mom LOL:  Yes, they do honey.  Get a magnet......and an education.

Emmie came up with a grand idea and followed it up by stating:

Emmie:  I know what species I am now......genius!

En route to art and while eating a Wendy's burger:

Emmie:  Oh (saddeded), it looks like a small animal got ran over.

Emmie:  (scoffed at herself)

Mom:  I don't understand?

Emmie:  .....as I sit here and eat a cow.

Random discussion:

Emmie:  Sloths are so cute!  I want a sloth sticker for my HydroFlask.

Mom:  Zootopia and marketing has made your generation think sloths are cute.

Emmie:  You don't think they're cute?

Mom:  Not particularly.

Emmie:  You better not tell Summer that or you'll have to sleep with one eye open the rest of your life.

Emmie was clearly frustrated upon getting in the truck to go to school:

Emmie:  If I get a slip, we're going to have to pay for that.

Mom:  You didn't find the book?

Emmie:  NO, and it's a library book.

Mom:  Hold on, are you upset because I didn't help you look for the book?

Emmie:  Yeah!  You just left me.

Mom:  The flipside is that I warmed up the truck for us.

Emmie:  I'd rather sit in a cold truck with a warm hearted Mom than a warm truck with a cold hearted Mom (arms crossed and looking straight ahead).

While playing a game:

"You can't rush me because you can't rush perfection."

Eric attempting to support Mom's decision making:

Eric:  She's pretty good and you know it.

Emmie:  Are we talking about the same Mom?

Later in that same conversation after it was somehow connected to Roblox:

Mom:  Would I be considered a Legendary or Neon?

Emmie:  No, you'd be a Common.

Upon eating buttered noodles, "I just entered a food coma."

While discussion fashion:

Mom:  I wear cool stuff all the time.

Emmie:  The outfit you're wearing right now proves that false.

While watching Friends, Judy made reference to younger women and how all their body parts still stand up.  Emmie looked at me confused,

Mom:  As women age, their boobs sag.

Emmie (smirking):  Oh, so that's why it looks like you don't have any boobs.

Pre-wrestling match banter between Emmie and I:

Emmie:  Do you want to wrestle?

Mom:  Can you handle a beatdown?

Emmie:  That might happen, but then you'd wake up.

While watching the Friends episode in which Phoebe's birth Mom gives her a pug for 3 days to teach her that it would be 1000x harder to give up a baby, "I'd give up a baby if I got a pug."

After learning that Jeremiah was eligible for a learner's permit, "We need to move out of town."

En route home after we picked up a pizza, "Oh, I can smell that divine Casey's pizza."

Emmie has been complaining about the # of political ads that interrupt her electronics viewing:

Mom:  Based on the ads that you've seen, who would you vote for?

Emmie:  I don't know.  I don't listen to them.  I bury my head in a pillow and bang my head against it.

She may not listen, but she hears them.....

Conversation between Eric and Emmie:

Eric:  Sorry.  I withdraw my question your honor (said in jest).

Emmie:  Thank you.  I finally get the respect that I deserve (not said in jest).  And Eric, you walked right into that one.

While sledding and on descent towards the jump, "If I die, give my toys to Katie."

On the way home from Charm's party:

Chavah:  Emmie, you're the nicest friend that I have.

Emmie:  No, I'm not.  We all know that Katie is the nicest.

Chavah:  True, but you're next.
