And You Thought Your Parents Embarassed You...

at first I was really impressed with his pirate's peg leg and how he hid his real leg...then i realized that he didnt have one

 

Exactly what I was gonna post.

 

I would literally shoot my Dad to death if he did that. I could handle it if I was a toddler in kindergarten or thereabouts...but 10th grade? He would have one rebellious son on his hands if he did that. It would implode in his face up until the time I shot him. lol

 

creepy. Were/are you really that sensitive?

I would think it would be hilarious.

 

He should just do a various kinds of pirates everyday instead.

Or maybe a robot. Like a beat down Terminator with one leg.

 

A parent's love in one of it's many forms.

 

At first, for the toilet seat picture, I thought the stick to the right was a plunger.

 

As a kid, I would have been mortified. As a parent, I think it's really cool.

 

If the kid has enough self-confidence, it could easily be turned into "your parents are hilarious" instead of "haha you're parents are dorks just like you". Gotta be able to play it off in a slick way.

 

This.. if it was so embarrassing to his kid I think he would have stopped a long time ago. Besides, the kids on the bus probably get a good kick out it.

 

DaDakota?

 

lol. I was kidding. I would never let my Dad do that, though. We would have problems and I would make his life hell. High school is hard enough without your Dad playing the proverbial fool and adding to the misery. Kids are cruel and they would tee off in school with this subject material.

 

If this was my school, kids at first probably would have made fun of me for a few days, but once they realized it was an everyday occurrence, they would start appreciating it, and start looking for the different costumes. The only kids who would have thought this was lame would be the Delta Bravos who were too busy judging everyone to actually have a sense of humor. I would have gotten a kick out of this though if my dad had done this.

 

must be tough being an unemployed dad.

 

Didn't know DD had all those costumes.

 

That's what I was thinking -- who has the time to assemble a new costume every morning? Nevermind the expense.

 

too bad his kid is the first to get on...

 

Maybe he owns a party store.

 

He borrowed a lot of them, and some they already owned. He claims he spent less than $50 all year.
