He really whiffed hard.
I asked him what it was like in a Disney movie. He didn't get it. So I told him he's literally one of the Angels in the Outfield!
Later I realized maybe I'd insulted him, calling his team a sort of mickey mouse club.
The game was a classic, "threw" and "threw"!
He would ask me, "so what position are you playing, left out?"
This was a couple years ago, my dad and I were at my sister's little league game.
pitch goes by, called a ball
Parents watching game: "good eye, good eye"
My dad: "is it just me or are there a lot of Australians here today?"
"Wow, that play was pretty tense!"
"You know what else has pretty tents? A campground."
"....... Aaaahhhh. Heehee!"
Sitting in the cinema when the trailers end and the light comes up for a minute before the real movie starts.
Dad: "Well, well what a nice movie, wasn't it? A little short but still..." pretends to stand up and leave
On rare occasions I have seen two dads do the pretending to leave thing at the same fucking time. It's like the universal dadjoke one has to perform at least once before entering the magic league of joking dads.
Tom Vanderbilt was this nice guy that loves to umpire the local little league games. He was good enough to make it to the major leagues. His first day umpiring behind the plate the first pitch hits the far bottom corner. Tom calls it a strike. The batter, 6'3" 275 lbs says, "you call that a strike again I'm going to pound you with this bat!" The next pitch hits the far bottom corner again. Tom calls it a ball. The catch, who is bigger than the batter turns around and yells, "you call that a ball again I'm going to pound you with this mask!" The very next pitch hits the very same spot. Tom yells, "two!" Both the batter and catcher yell, "two what?!" Tom says, "too close to call and I'm going back to the little leagues."
I got into an ARAM game the other day. For those of you who do not know there are characters, or champions, you pick in the game. ARAM is a game-mode in League of Legends where the computer gives you a random character out of the 130+ champions, or so. I am not good at all the champions... not even close! So a way to balance this out the game allows you to trade champions with the other people on your team.
So in this game there is a champion called Fizz which I am not good with at all, which I randomly got... and this is what happened inside the pre-game chat:
Me: Oh shoot.
Me: Can anyone trade me?
--Someone trades me their champion--
Me: Thank you! I am so bad with this little guy that you can say I am... Fizzically challenged.
From a game lobby where I was the only one who used chat, it exploded to people typing their moaning and groaning, sensible chuckles, and hearty "LOLs".
My grandpa saw my cousin wearing a White Sox t-shirt (from his little league team) and flip-flops.
"White Sox? It doesn't look like you're wearing any socks!"
Was at the local dairy with the family because they have a large baseball diamond and a few smaller ones for the Little League. As we were walking by the main building, my 10 year old son says "What's that smell?" Without skipping a beat I said, "That's the derriere......."
