As kids, we do many stupid yet hilarious things in life.

Kids are always watching grown-ups.

How many of you tried to sing in front of an electric fan as you listen to your voice being distorted by the wind, or drank coke pretending it was an adult beverage, or rolled a piece of paper and pretend to be smoking? How about looking out on the road while the rain is pouring on the car window, and you pretend to be in a sad movie or music video?

Some of you might have tried all of these and more. Well, it is no surprise, kids are generally curious creatures. And as a child, we tend to imitate what we see in our environment or what the adults are doing because we think it is cool and we want to be an adult too soon.

And just like any other kids, little Josie strikes again with her antics.

Josie is the star in her father, Eric Palonen’s, YouTube account.

For seven years, Eric has uploaded many videos of Josie being adorable and mischievous. And this video is no different from the others. As of writing, Eric has already garnered thirty thousand subscribers who are fans of Josie.

One day, she grabbed her dad’s laser ruler and goes copycat mode. Surprisingly, she is very good at imitating other people and those around her can’t help but burst into laughter. She got it all covered – from the mannerisms to facial expressions. I swear, Josie is not really a kid but a 40-year-old woman hiding in a kid’s body.

She must have been studying the grown-ups long enough to notice even the little nuances they make while making a phone call.

From rolling her eye to squinting in suppressed frustration to putting her palm on her chin, she copies everything adults do. She also stared at her pretend phone, making faces as if the person in the other line can see her. And the way she raises her voice at the end of the sentence because of utter disbelief is just comical.

At some point in the video, she even raised her eyebrows in shock when she noticed the people around her are snickering. She told them it isn’t funny. I mean come on guys, little miss is already frustrated as it is, be more considerate with her feelings.

This video is all-too-relatable for the adults watching it.

And Josie has done a very good job in imitating, she should receive the best actress award for her amazing performance.

When the video draws to an end, she talks to her phone again with a hello, to check if the person on the other line is still there. Surprisingly, the other person didn’t hang up the phone yet.

Josie continued by saying that she will stop talking to him if he says bad words. The other “person” must have agreed, and Josie ends the call like the queen she is.

Whatever they are talking about remains a mystery.
