As a parent, I'm not going to lie, there's a non-zero chance that's the truth. My kids are made of like 90% elbows.

I still prefer to think that the legion of doom had a Jerry Springer scene behind closed doors.

i agree entirely and i'm glad you asked, let me explain my delight.

it is tautologically true that it's funny he said this because either

a) this is a true statement. his full statement was that he let the kid punch him in the face because he thought it wouldn't hurt. he is a huge moron for inviting that when as you state, you'll get that from kids regardless and should try and avoid the pain

or

b) he lied in a way that throws a small child under the bus for whatever it was that actually caused it, which is a stupid and ludicrous thing to do

both of which possibilities are heightened by the idea that this moron is some sort of brain genius

Oh my God wow, wow, wow. Wow. I would never invite my kids to punch me in the face, because kids don't give a fuck, and especially because my kids have AuDHD. While they've never met self-restraint, they're pretty sure it sounds stupid. I'd get fucking falcon punched.
