Overheard conversation of the decade.
Father:
“You’re not doing well in math because you don’t apply yourself.”Son:
“But dad…”Father:
“Don’t ‘But dad’ me. If you don’t do well in math you’ll never get anywhere in life. Don’t you want to be smart like your dad?”Son:
“I guess.”Father:
“Listen to me son, because I know what I’m talking about. There are only three kinds of people in this world, those who can count and those who can’t. Don’t be one of those, OK? OK?!”Son:
“OK, dad. I promise.”
He promised? Promised what? Huh?! What?! What did he promise?!! What! Did! He! Promise?!?!?!?! ARGH!
*pop*
Ow. Somebody get me an aspirin and a mop please, my head exploded.
I’m pretty sure dad had read the binary counting joke somewhere, but couldn’t remember the point of it.
Dude, that is SO my dad. Are you sure you didn’t hear this while digging through my memories?
Thats the same kind of guy who puts the 12 commandments on his lawn.
