I hope there's an Okey Dokey on the Zoki for Loki.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's a Komodo Dragon hatching:

It looks like it's inflating itself on the way out. My eye can't compress the resulting dragon volume back into that egg. Well, I guess it is, really.

My eye can't compress the resulting dragon volume back into that egg.

It's like getting a new tent out of its box and then trying to get it back in.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Is wanker an inappropriate word for a third grader?

As in, "most people are wankers." from a curmudgeony old bat?

If it is inappropriate, what's a good alternative?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I would say wanker is not appropriate for kids. I don't know if there's anything more interesting than "jerk" that's not stupid like "stupidhead" or whatever.

I need something said by an old British bat.

I don't know if there's anything more interesting than "jerk"

And since "jerk" is short for "jerkoff" it means the same as "wanker."
