Yup. Same here.

If I ask dad, "Hey what are you up to?"
He replies in terms of his weight, "bout 210-215."

Do they all laugh with you, or at you?

We quote movies and tv a lot


My brother and I do this every day through texts.
When we get together for holidays, my parents have no idea what we are talking about because we are having conversations using movie and tv quotes

Anytime we are at a urinal pissing or take a piss while fishing, "that water is cold" to which the reply is "and deep"

Used to happen as a kid and I didn't understand how it could be cold and deep since my pecker didn't touch the water. I think I was 16 when I finally got it

My uncle when referring to a more dense black population: "It gets dark on that side of town a little earlier"

My mom and dad used to bust out laughing in the car every time they would see a "slippery when wet" sign on the road. I never knew why until I got older and found out that it was a way to describe.....you know.

As an inside joke....to myself....sometimes I think, in regards to one of my kids "how did you get so fricking dumb?"

My dad would tell me I was just shoveling shite in the sea.

When mom was nearby he would just tell me to try harder.

My ex and I used to say in a real girly/gay voice "Hey hey hey, I'm here to buy something" because we hear a lady say it at a garage sale once.

Anytime my kids ask where we are going I always clap my hands three times and say "Mermaid forest" because it was on Dora one time. This has been going on for years.

Married into a family with a German name and ancestry. At family reunions it would be said that there are enough Germans here to start a war.

My dad will often call me at 2 am and scream, "Bail me the frick out of jail, a-hole!"

That's our fun little tradition.

Is it a funny tradition, or do you actually have to bail him out on a regular basis? Either way, I may have to try this some time.

I did a few times, but I don't live in NOLA anymore. My sisters handle it, although he's getting older, so he doesn't get in trouble as much as he used to.

ETA: So...not terribly funny.

My dad has a tendency to talk around someone when he thinks he's right and they're not. He and my brother were disagreeing over the design of some structure. My dad looks over at me while my brother is trying to explain and says

"He just doesn't get it does he"?

Then immediately followed up with telling my brother

"You don't understand the physical world"

Anytime there's any discussion on any construction both those phrases pop up immediately.


He pulled a funny one on my bro-in-law talking about being able to back up a trailer. Once again talking around the person standing in front of him.

"I know son 2 can back a trailer and son 1 can, but Son-in-law I'm not sure"

Anytime we launch a boat, it gets thrown out there.
