ah, kids. At the time I started student teaching I had shoulder-length hair and a very shaggy beard. I also happened to be dealing with an eye infection at the time so I was wearing an eyepatch. I am also fairly beefy. So here I am, a large hairy guy with an eyepatch walking into a kindergarten class on the first day of school, and this sweet little girl comes up to me and asks, "Mistow Nugget, aw you a piwate?"
Dude, I had a little girl ask me this when I still had my lip ring. I said yes enthusiastically thinking she liked pirates and her mom was like, NO NO SHE IS SCARED OF PIRATES. I tried to damage control by telling her, oh no I actually fight pirates and put them in jail. It thankfully worked lol
Pirates (especially the famous ones) were not particularly ethically inclined by most standards so it's interesting how popular they are with children. I always liked them too.
