My dad's advice on what I should do this weekend
I told him I was helping my honor fraternity rent out seatbacks at the football game, and he said (and I quote):

"Well, maybe afterwards you can go to some sleazy bar and pick up a guy." :wtf:

I love my dad, but sometimes I just don't understand him. :shrug:

1. Yeah...a sleazy bar? What's wrong with regular ol' non-sleazy bars?
:D

2. I told him he was encouraging me to be a sleaze
and he said he just wanted me to have a life. Which, apparently, you can't do at regular ol' non-sleazy bars. :crazy: :rofl: :hi:

3. Well having a life is good, but being a sleaze? Not so much.
I must say I've never gotten that kind of advice from either of my parents. :D:hi:

4. Yeah, he's come up with some...interesting...comments over the years.
:rofl: He means well, I know - it just doesn't always come across the right way, lol. :hi:

...That was really a moment, wasn't it?

I've found that often times, things sound better in your head than when they come out of your mouth. I think your Dad may know the feeling too. :D


Nice you have a sense of humor about it. :hi:

8. Yeah...there are a lot of those moments in my family, lol.
Not sure if it's a genetic thing, or what, but I have the tendency to say incredibly awkward things without fully considering how they will actually sound, too. :blush: :shrug: Ah well, it keeps life interesting! :D :hi:
