All of this is so true!
I get so mad if someone touches the thermostat that I will set it, then take the controller off the wall so no one can touch it again

I’ve got several headlamps and a rack of hooks in the hallway closet just for them. I frankly don’t know how people live without them.
And every time I discover someone has used one and failed to return it to the hook my transformation into my father gets closer to completion.

I’ve gotten really cheap as I’ve gotten older. I no longer impulse buy.

Well, my mom was my step dad's sexretary while she was married to my dad...
So what you're saying is after I'm married, I'm going to start banging my boss and marry her after my divorce??
Game. On.

It's all true. I was finally an adult when I admitted to myself that my dad was right about everything.

There is a lot of truth to all of this. The thermostat is a big contention in this house also. If I get hot I get pissed. It is very simple when it comes to that. The other would be filling the garbage can to much. I also find myself critiquing the yard men and pool guy.

I can't go to a sporting event without saying "I wonder what they make just in parking."

I find myself doing more and more preparations for everything. Storm coming last night, welp better make sure all phones and laptops are charged, got gas for the generator.

You people are insane. If someone changes the thermostat I just put it back. I don't need to rage about it.

The older I get the more I understood my step-dads deep desire to be left alone and stare into nothingness. Sometimes they'll visit and we'll sit together in silence for hours while the women do...whatever inside. It's magical really

7. Mispronouncing things goofily on purpose

Guilty, but I also cop some of my dad's phrases in front of him to give him hell.
Back in the day, if I was listening to Zeppelin or Skynyrd, he would tell me to turn it down, that he couldn't think with that damn wing-wong music playing.
Now, when we are visiting with my grown sons and they play some of their music (which thankfully is the same as my music- classic rock) I make a big fuss, and faux rant and rave about their damn wing-wong music.

I do, and I love it. My dad died of leukemia when he was 49, so it makes me happy to not only still remember the things he said/did but to being doing and saying them myself now.
Someone told me when he died, which was 12 years before I had my own sons, that if I take what I learned from him and pass it on to my kids/nieces/nephews/ that he would always be alive through me. They were so right, and I try to pass that on whenever someone I'm close to loses a parent
