  1. Just when you lay down to take a nap.
  2. At 2:00 in the morning
  3. In the middle of a:
  • blizzard
  • rainstorm
  • tornado
  • flood
  • earthquake

4. When you’re late for:

  • work
  • a doctor’s appointment
  • your own wedding

5. As soon as you sit down on the toilet

6. Or turn on the shower

7. Or sit down to eat

8. After you’ve asked them three times, “Want to go out?” and they say no, so you turn on the TV and get super comfortable on the couch and the pillows are all perfectly placed which is like a miracle because that never happens, and you’ve got your snacks within arm’s reach and this is the first time you’ve gotten to relax in weeks, and then they walk over to the couch and they have that look on their face and you have no choice but to get up, put on some outside clothes, find your shoes, put on their harness and take them out because this is your child who poops outside.

(This might apply to kids, too. Except you don’t have to take them outside. Maybe you do. I don’t know anything about kids.)
