Aww cute :D

Totally how you should raise your kids!

[divinechaos]

Wow, that's the cutest, most Metal thing I've seen this week. If my kid can't name all those characters by the age of 4 I'll disown him/her.

[Wasson_]

Other team is BABIES!

that's who he is missing...Dr. Freeman or The Heavy.

[Stmfuller]

sigh.
My daughter knows who Peter is from family guy.
It's actually a little embarassing.

[StarGypsy]

I thought that was the coolest thing ever.
My wife, not so much.

[LordDon]

My girls would probably get about half of those, but then they're 7.

[Doctor Setebos]

My girls would probably get about half of those, but then they're 7.Yeah. My son could name a majority of those, but he's 6.

[astranoir]

Absolutely adorable :)

[JRR1285]

That's pretty damn cool.

[Stoke]

Simply awesome.

[RandoM51]

Wonder what his wife thinks about that? :)

[Draggnknucks]

I'm half horrified that the parent would take time that could be used better to teach other things that are useful, but I also think it's wicked sick.

Is this an ad for the most awesome flash cards, or what? Who needs Baby Einstein?

[Jeffool]

That kid needs some Sesame Street in her life, that's all I'm saying.

[Wolvie]

That is the most awesome thing I have seen today. Also, that kid is gonna have one killer memory when she gets older.

[Stmfuller]

actually according to research that has come out in the last couple of years...nobody.

[Urizen]

Agreed. It was cute and adorable for the first five or six. After that, I began to wonder if the kid knows anything else.

[TheDancinMan]

That is the most awesome child in the history of awesome children. Good lord.

Kids that can maintain that much information of any kind usually are higly intelligent and know many other things as well. If anything it was a way for the dad to challenge his kid on something he was sure she hadn't seen before. I guess it'd be how long did he have to do that till she retained it all. For her sake, let's hope I am right.

Granted my niece is very intelligent and she could probably do the same thing with Disney characters and Beatles songs. Sure those may be somewhat useless but she's in the first grade and is a proficient reader and speller. She just retains all informaion around her quite well.

If anything she's got cute going for her ;)

[Hyperglide]

That was adorable, put a big smile on my face. That girl is gonna make her gamer husband happy one day.

Or, they could be autistic (with a specialized ability in one area). Or an idiot savant (specialized ability in one area).

I see the virtue in retaining information. I was wondering whether this was any different from the child identifying Disney characters or different works by Da Vinci and Dali.

The child definitely does not appear to have any symptoms of Autism. She seems very emotive and responsive.

[Cyrillus]

I realize that you guys are making valid points, but if you check the description of the video the girl's dad says this was a test to see how well she retained information, and that she learned all those in 4 days, going through the flash cards 4 times a day. That's pretty impressive.

Also, the cuteness of her responses to "what does Pikachu say" and "what does Sackboy do" was ridiculous.

[Spigot]

Screw the haters. I need a set of these flash cards for my kids. Granted, they already pick up most of that info via osmosis and watching me, but it's awesome nonetheless.

[J3DI]

How cool is that kid?! She is going to be a breaker of gamers hearts I tell you.

[pomeroy]

I was watching this and my little sister's puppy (who hates babies) heard it and started freaking out.

Anyway, cute kid.

[resikel]

I would rather train my kid to be a ninja. There's never enough ninjas in the world.

That's just what they want you to think; to lull you into a false sense of security.

Ninjas were killed off a long time ago by pirates, 1789 to be exact. True story. The pirates just dress up as ninjas from the garb they took off the corpses once a year while they are doing their own laundry.

Also, that kid is one impressive cookie. Very cute, very very impressive.

[Spigot]

Pshaw. Everyone knows that the pirates fell to the zombie horde in 1803. The reason so many pirates have peg legs and hook hands and eye patches? The real appendages rotted off.

perhaps, but I have it on good authority that it was the pirates themselves that did that to themselves in a drinking and looting frenzy, so drunk the next day that the remaining ninga...thats right. ninja, spread the story via Johny dangerously style.
