And now for something completely different

Person On The Radio: hey, does anyone ever wonder what ever happened to Sisqo?*

The Kid: Who is Sisqo?

Me: Some singer from a million years ago, his claim to fame was the "Thong Song"

The Kid: the what?

Me: "Thong Song", the chorus was something like "let me see that thong tha thong thong thong"

The Kid: No.

Me: No what?

The Kid: No, that song does not exist, you're making that up

Me: I understand that several years ago, I had you convinced that you had been purchased at a garage sale, but there is no way I could make up the "Thong Song". It was actually pretty popular at the time.

The Kid: No.

Me: Google it, babycakes.

Cue about a minute of him consulting YouTube on his smartphone, then looking at me with a mortified look on his face.

The Kid: But... why?

Me: Exactly
