Random midnight conversation with my father

[whiski_sour]

Dad: You went to Hardees!
Me: Yeah. You were asleep.
Dad: *gets wild look and opens his knife*
Me: Don't get pissy with me. You were the one who asked me what I was going to get for dinner before wandering off into the other room and falling asleep.
Dad: You didn't answer me!
Me: I was busy! And, you never asked me again!
Dad: Because I was asleep!

You could get dizzy trying to keep up in conversation with us.

At least it's fun there!

Never a dull moment.

LOL!!

That sounds so much like a conversation in my family that it's almost scary

[whiski_sour]

Do people often not make sense and brandish weapons in an attempt to communicate at your house, too?!

[disgruntledjenn.livejournal.com]

Well...my mom threatned me with the electric mixer one time, if that counts? LOL

[whiski_sour]

You definitely get points for creativity on that one. Heh.

SHE DID THOUGH! She ran out of eggs while making a cake and told me if I didn't run to 7-11 she'd attack my hair with the mixer!

She's out to GET ME. Anytime i'm in the bathroom or my bedroom she'll wait quietly outside my door so when I open it up *BAM* she's standing right there to make me scream loudly and scare the shit out of me.

My family is STRANGE...

Oh, I feel ya on the strange thing. My dad has thrown knives at me, run across the couch and jumped onto me, jumped out of dark corners and put the sleeper hold on me, and has shot me with a supersoaker in the house. He's also notorious for bursting into my room doing gorilla impressions for absolutely no reason, as well as running through the house in terror from my cat. Again, for no reason.

Do you think our parents have always been this way or do you think having children has affected them somewhat adversely?

Im not quite sure...my mom claims it's because she had more fun as a child and she didn't want to grow up. Im sure it's like that for all of them...execept they forget that it embarrasses their offspring in the meanwhile.

Like this afternoon for example...I tried to tell her that the overhead music in the grocery store was for shopping enjoyment...not to RE-CREATE AMERICAN IDOL FOR THE ELDERLY IN THE FROZEN FOOD ASILE *facepalm*

[whiski_sour]

Did she make up her own words?! My mom does that sort of thing. I was nearly 16 before I learned that the lyrics to Ozzy Osbourne's "Iron Man" did not include "I am SANTA CLAUS!"

[disgruntledjenn.livejournal.com]

LOL, she knew the lyrics and would dance down the isle with her frozen pizzas...it was very embarrassing

[whiski_sour]

Singing and dancing with frozen pizzas. *shakes head sadly* I think that's a sign you should start looking for homes for her.
