Why? 'Cause this is how I roll ...

So I picked up a little bit of "youthful lingo" from some of my Amazon colleagues, and now say things like "That's how I roll." Or "That's not how I roll."

And now that the boys have entered their "why" phase (asking why why why why why ad infinitum), I tried to use it as a conversation stopper, as in:

Boy: "Mama, why are you doing that?"

Mama: "Because that's how I roll."

Other Boy, intrigued: "I want to see you roll. Roll now, Mama. Show me."

At least he didn't ask "why."
