john roderick O @johnroderick · 12h She didn't look up. She knew the action. A little baked bean sauce appeared. She savored each twist until the lid, as I hoped it would, rewarded her by standing perfectly at attention, saluting her effort and ingenuity. She was elated and carried it to the kitchen in both hands. 4 27 3 223 john roderick O @johnroderick · 12h She knew this was a commonplace task and a common tool but also that this was serious business. She knows her dad, and the stock I put in these things. A more mechanically inclined kid might have figured it out in minutes. She factored the scale, but was rightfully proud. 12 230 john roderick O @johnroderick · 12h I'm proud of her too. I know l'm infuriating. I know this is parenting theater in some ways. I suffer from a lack of perseverance myself, and like all parents throughout history l'm trying to correct my own mistakes in the way I educate my child. She sees through this. 27 27 1 380 john roderick O @johnroderick · 12h The Swing-a-Way can opener is a little voodoo doll for us now. It will reappear as an allegory many more times in her life, you can be sure. She knows this too. But this is an allegory of triumph. I wish I had more of those for myself. I wish I had more stories like this. 27 393 john roderick O @johnroderick · 12h The only problem is now she wants to open every f------ can in the house!

dad > Dad I have a hypothetical question for you: if I was nine years old and came up to you with a can of beans saying I was hungry but didn't know how to use the can opener, what would you do I would say you have a can't opener
Thank you for explaining whatever the hell this was, KnowYourMeme. Lord knows Twitter can give a half-decent answer.
