I met a little boy last night

He was eating taffy and popcorn. He turned to me and pointed to one cheek that was bulging out and said “Look!”

Me: “What is that? Taffy?”
Him: “Yeah! I’m saving it for later!”
Me: “So you’re like a hamster.”
Him: “I’m a squirrel!”
Me: “Hamsters like to save lots of food in their cheeks for later. I think you’re a hamster. What do you think?”
Him: “I’m a hamster!”
Me: “Well if you’re going to be a hamster, then you need a hamster name. What do you think of the name Rex?”
Him: “No.”
Me: “What do you mean ‘no’? Rex is an excellent Hamster name!”
Him: “No! My hamster name is Isaiah!”
Me: “Is that your real name?”
Him: “Yeah!”
Me: “Isaiah isn’t a good hamster name, I’m gonna call you Rex.”
