Let's take a break from all the stressful discussions of murder, politics, and lethal weapons to talk about something much more fun: childhood dreams!

So, do you have any funny stories about people you know or used to know who wanted to grow up and have a strange profession? Or maybe you were the odd one? Anything off-the-wall or just plain hilarious?



I guess I'll start... Well, I didn't really have any weird goals when I was little, but a friend of mine... didn't really understand the concept. His parents would occasionally ask him, "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

His response? "I wanna be a squirrel!"

Yeah.

Thankfully, I heard his dreams got better a few years later. He decided he'd rather be a cowboy.



Now, what's your story? Tell us!


P.S. The title is a line from one of the generic trainers in Pokemon DP. Hooray for obscure references!
