my dads a little weird he doesnt talk much but sometimes he walks in the living room and looks at me wit like a " what the hell are you doin man" or a " what what i gonna do" face, then walk back to his room lookin confused. lol he also gets really confused in the morning. Ive found the coffee pot, in the fridge one day, a box of cheerios another, his phone in the freezer, the milk in living room, and just last night he spent 30 minutes looking for his phone, which he was using to talk to his boss...its pretty funnyh to watch

My dad has several times replied to a question with an enthusiastic "Yiff!"
I reckon (strongly hope) that he still thinks it means yes. Or it was just gibberish. I don't even know how he knows of... them. Probably just unfortunate gibberish though. But still...

My Mom once caught me watching MLP, but she didnnt say anything and just kept walking. Dabuq?

My mother at the tender age of 64, called me a n00b aswell as telling my kids to stop trolling My mom has over the years gotten more and more hooked on the internet, and I still grin when I think of her first experience with chatrooms: She couldnt understand why she got so many nasty offers on a music chatroom, looking at her profile, she had called herself "GoldenFluffy69" (She had 2 golden retrievers that were fluffy, and was at a rolling stones concert in 69), and she was just staring at me while I was bent over laughing
She is awesome though, she is a genuine rocker and metalhead, and was wondering why so many neo-metal vocalists sound like they were castrated at birth(quite sure she was thinking of hammerfall at the time).

My grandmother(RIP) somehow got a glimpse of a program about sex & teens, and exclaimed how "Well, we f*cked when I was young, but I didnt run around in the streets telling people about it. A f*ck is a f*ck" Everyone except my cousin and me (who was howling with laughter), looked perplexed

My parents can be pretty unusual, but I can't think of any specific examples at the moment...

[Kyreth]

My parents seem painfully boring in comparison to what you guys are saying XD

My friends parents put a pedobear sticker on their car, obviously not knowing what it really was.

[Strafe]

My mom gets drunk and at parties and always finds a way to fall down a flight of stairs. One time it was so bad that I had to drive her home without a license.

[Stoner Spike]

Hm...whenever either of my parents are stressed out while working on something and they need to find something, they always spend at least a half hour freaking out about how they can't find it, only to then realize that they had it in their hand.

And my mom organizes the fridge in alphabetical order.

[MissMachine]

my dad likes to put a lighter to his butt and fart. you know what happens next...

....i'm serious.

[Princess Ariona]

When my dad sees on TV that his football team won a match, he jumps and starts belly dance xD

Whenever a salesperson comes to the door my dad always lets them in and talks to them forever for some reason. Except he usually is more interested in the person than whatever theyre selling. I think its because his dad was an anthropologist so he likes to study humans, though my dad's also a psychology major. He's a pretty interesting person...

My dad plays the mandolin and likes friggin Celtic music.

My mom, on the other hand, is a bit of a gamer and is a metalhead.

...
Let's just say that my WHOLE family is strange.

[cuteycindyhoney]

Once when I was little, I was at the grocery store with my mom. This guy nosily passed gas (IT STUNK!) in the aisle next to us. My mom pulled a can of room air freshener spray out of the cart, and SPRAYED IT ON HIS A$$! He actually ran away! We saw him later in the store, standing next to another woman. My mom walked up and said "Watch out, he likes to point hiss ass and fart at women." I swear, that is word for word what she said! That was years ago, and she still brings it up if anyone says something about disgusting habits or the like.

My dad always teases my mom. If there is any kind of a saying to be said, my mom always reverses it. Example (TRUE!) As long as I can remember, my mother always says jelly and peanut butter sandwiches. Never peanut butter and jelly.

my old chinese parents....where do i start? they drive at like 60 km per hour on a highway. they fight over ridicuouls things like not buying the proper kind of banana. it's impossible to tell what makes them mad or what doesn't

[Marcusaralius76]

Whenever my dad sings around me, he sounds like crap. Whenever he's around someone else, they tell me he sounds like Ripper Owens.

[Flitter]

My brother teaches my dad a lot of what's going on on the internet these days. So he uses the word "troll" and "derp" and uses memes and whatnot. My brother also got him addicted to Dubstep, I think that's a little weird, I guess, because while we were growing up, he was a Pink Floyd, T.a.T.u, Cake kind've guy. Now he's all about the -step. xD

Weirdest thing for me was when my mom, now in her 50's, told me she got her belly button pierced. All I could even say after she told me was, "Wait...what?" I was very taken aback by it. To my knowledge she still has it too.

[Mr. Wobbels]

I told her I was taught in medical school that the "church-approved" rhythm method (ie following your periods closely and only having sex at times that conception is least likely) is not very reliable.

You know what they call people who use the rhythm method? Parents.

[DrOphthalmos]

You know what they call people who use the rhythm method? Parents.

I agree with you. I still can't believe my mom told me what she told me - guess my parents are anal enough to make the rhythm method work. Sucks though, I did not want to be an only child. Why couldn't they mess up the rhythm method like normal people?
