Overheard #18

Lately we've been getting a lot of "It's all about..." from Stella. There's usually nothing pleasant about an "it's all about" sentence. For example:

• "It's all about those kids", when a group of children will not relinquish the use of playground swings.
• "It's all about Marni", when more attention is paid to her sister than herself.
• "It's all about me", when she demands that it is now Stella-time.

When imagining Stella and an "it's all about..." sentence, it is best to also include a scowl.
