In which Daughter and Father discuss latest Internet drinking game, using the Internet
I forget what the game is called, but it was all the rage on Facebook a couple weeks ago. Daughter was asked about it. The exchange:
Mom or Dad at the end of the sentence; they’re probably pissed. Mom or Dad at the beginning; they’re about to ask you for something or you’re probably just not going to like what comes next…
That’s nothing…I was in my credit union the other day, and the employee helping me out, she is a long time employee about half my age, called me ‘Dear’ five times.
I sense more condescension than irritation. My children let me know that I’m a doddering fool in a similar manner.
