Parsley and celery

The 12 year old junior Luddite was home crook from school the other day, and she sent me this text :
"I just watched a show on celery and parsley. Did u know scientist think they mite b able to fix the disability. Thats good".
I rang her, because it confused the stuffing out of me, and she started telling me that celery and parsley is the one where they shake and pull faces.
It wasn’t until about 10 minutes later, after I’d given up in total bewilderment, that I realised ‘celery and parsley’ was actually cerebral palsy.
Then I started to shake and pull faces. Love that kid.
