Do you talk skydiving lingo outside of skydiving?

As my 4-year-old daughter climbed into her car-seat and sat down yesterday, I said, fasten your chest strap.

Then, today when we got to daycare I unhooked her seat harness, looked at her and said, climb out.

You didn't say "2 minutes!....EXIT! EXIT!"

Actually...

We do a minutes-to-arrival countdown (she's at that phase of wanting to know exactly how long it will be until we arrive). She spots the daycare center before we pull into the parking lot.

I don't yell DOOR, however. Oh, and I noticed that she gets into the arm straps elbow first and checks for strap twists before "clicking" the chest strap.

She laughed this morning at an episode of skydiveradio (on the way to her school) where they mentioned "the worlds longest running boogie". Her mind was on snot, not skydiving. Her name is Amelia. Maybe she'll be a pilot.

When planning my last food show I told our school specialist that we need to dirt dive the show to make sure we remembered all the blocks.

No. And I never, ever talked in military acronyms off duty when I was in the army either.

Sure. Who hasn't had the parking space they were looking at "swooped" out from underneath them?

Me either, it's pretentious and rude
