My Sister’s Children and I Understand Each Other
There’s a certain kind of absurd direct threat that children seem to find amusing, perhaps because they’re constantly being threatened and pushed around for real.

One time when my Nephew was playing in a Box in a room with Me and my mother I suddenly yelled “Right! Tape it up with him in it and we can post him off to Australia!” he looked at me and then started going “No!!” in a whiney voice while my mom cracked up.
When he comes in with a cut or a bruise and I happen to be there, I tend to say “That looks terrible. We have to amputate. I’ll get a knife”
I’m a pretty terrible Uncle. He finds it hilarious though.
