Children's game.
"Ok, let's play a game. I'll say 'I one the sandbox', you say 'I two the sandbox', and we'll keep counting, k?"
"K."
"I one the sandbox!"
"I two the sandbox."
"I three the sandbox!"
"I four the sandbox."
"I five the sandbox!"
"I six the sandbox."
"I SEVEN THE SANDBOX!"
"This is getting boring."
"C'mon, just a little longer!"
<sigh> "Ok, I eight the sandbox."
"YOU ATE THE SANDBOX?!? HOW DID IT TASTE?"
Usually followed by the sometimes magical, sometimes disturbingly maniacal laughter of young children.
This game remains fun (and I use the term loosely) until that one day in fourth grade when the kids learn about fractions. After this day the game can never again be played to any effect.

"I seven the sand box"
"I seven and a half the sand box"
"That's cheating!"
"nuh uh!"
