"I said a Rasta lion... I ain't lyin'."

As I was sitting on my bed social networking doing something super important, I heard my dad yell for me to come upstairs. I thought "Oh great, what am I in trouble for now??" Yeah, I'm 25 years old and I still get scared that my parents are going to yell at me for things. Deal with it.

So I get to the bottom of the stairs and my dad is already waiting for me at the top, super excited about his latest purchase. He says to me "I got this shirt for your mom, but she hates it. I'm going to keep it, though. I think it's really awesome! Open it up and see how cool it is!!" He then whipped the shirt down the stairs and smacked me right in the face with it. Nice, dad. Nice. -_-

Let me stop here for a second, and say that my dad is (usually) very well dressed. He is a salesman, so he has no shortage of expensive pants, nice button-up shirts, fancy ties, and shiny shoes. What I was preparing to unfold, though, was something I never could have prepared for in a million years.

THE HORROR!


What was he thinking?! I'm serious. Someone please tell me. Actually, what was the "designer" of this shirt smoking??

Nevermind... I think I can answer that.

I quickly told Bri about the awful events that unfolded, and what she proceeded to do made my night  week  year  life. I laughed so hard that I cried and did that gross, gaggy, bronchitis-sounding cough. If I choked to death, it would have been worth it.

Prepare to (almost) die.

Thank you, Bri. ♥

  10. @Laurenne He's really on my nerves right now, but yeah, he's usually not that bad. :)

  14. 1) I just let out a genuine giggle. I had to show my mom the shirt because she is nosy and needed to know why I was laughing. She didn't think it was as funny, but I was all, "No. But. Like. Picture DAD wearing this shirt." She faked a laugh and walked away. Rude.

    2) That's a totally legit funeral request. Put it in your will. Demand that none of your vast estate can be dispensed with until this request has been financed.

  15. The shirt reminds me of one that John from "John and Kate Plus Eight", whoops, I meant "Kate Plus Eight" would wear.
