The Xbox 316
Dad: Son I know you're upset. Know what my grandfather used to tell me when I was feeling this down?
Me: sniff What, Dad?
Dad: He would tell me, "Sonny, you stay here, I'm going upstairs to fuck your grandma."
....he also tells my friends this when they come over upset.
Took my precious grandparents to Cold Stone for a late night snack. After waiting line, trying many samples and finally ordering and getting our ice cream, my grandma goes to pay. After some searching, she hands the cashier her rewards card and continues to search for her money. After a little more fumbling, she looks up to see the cashier with a funny look on her face and tells my grandma she can't use that card. My grandma is confused and asks, "why, is it expired?" To which the young girl responds, "no, it's just that we're not Ohmaha Steaks."
My grandma is super embarrassed and my grandpa turns to me and says, "it seems your grandma has a case of cardszheimers."
No, that's it.
It knew how to rock before it was cool.
It's FOCKING STONE COLD
I asked my dad "When are the tree fellers coming?"
He replied "Monday, but I'm not sure if it'll be tree fellers, there might be four."
He said it with a stone-cold serious tone, whilst poking around on his ipad. The best sort of delivery for that sort of joke.
When I was a kid (who am I kidding, he still does it) my dad would notice reflections in mirrors at restaurants or on glass building or whatever. He would stop the conversation, lean in close to everyone, and in a dead serious whisper say "Look, it's that family that's been following us again." Then his face would go from stone-cold serious to a huge grin.
Every time. It was our reflection. And he did it every time. I love my dad.
Driving to work this morning and a commercial with a phone ringing came on.
I swiftly grabbed the banana in the cup holder and said:
"Hello? Yea, She is right here!"
I handed the banana to my wife and she laughingly asked "Who is it?"
Stone cold serious I responded "Nana... Who else has this number?"
