If a child asks you if you're smart and you say yes and they tell you to spell it, the answer is "i t." Just a heads-up for grown-ups who don't want to get rolled

Rebisking this under duress because it's amusing, but it's also amusing to watch grown-ups get rolled by children, which implies that this information is perhaps better not shared.
Nah. The real big brain move is to wait for them to drop their gotcha, then tell them since they put emphasis on "spell", they communicated that they wanted me to spell the subject of the discussion. If they wanted me to spell "it" the emphasis would be on "it". Make sure to mock them if they cry.
I've come to the very serene conclusion that the satisfaction you feel in defeating their trickery is but a fraction compared to their joy in putting one over on a grownup. I say, roll away, kid.
