Ambition

The Boy (having a conversation with some random grown-up): Dinosaurs, dinosaurs...blah blah...Xenotarsosaurus is my favorite dinosaur, but I wouldn't want to meet one because it's a carnosaur...blah, blah...dinosaurs...

Grown-up (slightly condescending):
Are you going to be a dinosaur scientist when you grow up?

The Boy (slightly condescending): I'm going to be a paleontologist, yes.

Later, in the car to me...

The Boy: After I retire from being a paleontologist, I think I'll go work for Pixar.
