From Susan — He has a what??

Filed under: Updates — surly @ 9:45 pm

Darling daughter – DD – and I were watching TV this weekend and someone made a reference to Freud.  So, DD asked me, “Who’s Freud?”  I said he was the father of modern psychology. 

DD: “What’s his whole name?”

Me: “Sigmund Freud.”

She paused.

DD: “I thought Sigmund Freud had a tiger act in Vegas.”

Me (choking): “I think you mean Sigfried and Roy!!”

DD: “Whatever — it’s the same thing!”

Yep — I gotta see Freud’s tiger act the next time I’m in Vegas!!

  1. Really, in some ways, Freud’s theories were a tiger act. Sexual tension, danger, control, theatrics – it’s all there. 🙂

  4. Just shows how times do change. Ego is still around, but who ever mentions superego or id (except maybe wizard of) any more? Me, I’m happy that psychologists have a healthier view of women now.
