Shannon looks totally fine with that definition. And on the other hand, it’s good to have signs that Jonah love her daughter. I think that after Toni’s marriage he’s really trying to be more responsible and a better father for her.
No child is ever going to ask, “what does it mean that I’m a ray of sunshine?” The better way to write this joke would be for her to brag that her dad said that, and then have Brad speculate that maybe her dad meant what Brad described. That way the little girl doesn’t sound like she’s totally unfamiliar with the English language.
What is amazing to me is that based on reading the comments so far is that TJ is almost a beloved character of the comic; boy what a change from when he appeared more often in the galaxy of arcs involving Brad and Toni’s march to marriage and the house issues; lets not even talk about the food truck incident. But people are saying he is wise, a favorite character, better father material than Bwad!! Boy can fortunes change. Maybe Bets might get lucky like that you think? This bog is like a conviction minded jury, and while TJ might get a NG these days, no matter how much I and small number of others try, she is a G. Give it time Bets.
It is nice to see a child with creative ideas and not staring at a screen all day. More kids should be like Shannon. She will have her own business as an adult.

I don’t care about anyone else. I like Shannon.
If her energy were channeled, just think of the world problems that could be solved.

Just another reason why TJ would make a more observant father than Brad.

Does Shannon know what the word “exposure” means?

And suddenly I’m reminded of what Cleavon Little did with a shovel in the movie “Blazing Saddles”………,

I really enjoy the completely random ways Shannon is depicted, or maybe the stuff we see her with.

Shannon is a real metaphor—-and one with multiple interpretations it would seem.

Actually, that’s probably exactly what her dad meant.

For once, T.J. has a valid point. Because whom among us doesn’t want to reduce our exposure to Shannon?
