Ro: Daddy, can I drive the white car when I’m 55?<\/p>\n
me: <thinking hard> Yes, Ro, you can even drive it when you’re 16!<\/p>\n
Ro: Dad, I’ll drive it when I’m 16 and then stop the numbers.<\/p>\n
me: <after I get that stopping the numbers means not aging any more>: Ro, you can drive the white car anytime you’re older than 16 – like 17, 18, 19, 20, and so on.<\/p>\n
Ro: OK, but I want to be 16!<\/p>\n

Engineer: Daddy, can I have some vanilla ice cream?<\/p>\n
Dad: Roland, you’re 40 years old and an electrical engineer. You can have any ice cream you like: chocolate, strawberry, pistacio, vanilla,…<\/p>\n
Engineer: Well, then I don’t want to.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In case you’re still wondering: yes the joke is over.<\/p>\n
