OH NOES, I'm scared.

No cos I'd just set one of these up.

Jimmy was n average kid, that no-one understands. Mom nd dad and vicky always giving him commands. If you send another chain letter you will get punched in the mother****ing face by your laptop until your brains spell out your name on the wall behind you. :band:

Heh, mine came over to my place today to eat.
Fortunately, they were both already drunk, so we didn't have to go through the uncomfortable part.

That doesn't sound like fun at all. I've never heard you talk about your parents. You probably have a reason, but I think it would be better not to ask for the sake of decency.

I don't have a problem talking about them because I'm nothing like them. I do love them, but they have a way of turning a good time into an argument between themselves that escalates higher and higher in decibels.
One would think that after over 30 years of marriage, they'd have figured each other out and realized that simply butting heads never actually gets either one of them anywhere, but it hasn't. As an outsider, I feel like they both have to be really stupid, or really egotistical. I tend to put my mom in the "stupid" category, and my dad in the "egotistical" one. I have evidence that it's the correct choice, believe me.
So they're the perfect example of getting along for approximately an hour. They're also the perfect example of getting drunk and microscoping an insignificant event into an argument of epic proportion, decibel levels soaring, until the argument simply becomes who can yell louder.

In essence, my dad is a borderline obsessive-compulsive logical workaholic multitasker that absolutely needs to be making EVERY second of his time work for him, which in his old age, ends up becoming nothing more than a cluster-f*ck of jumping back and forth between projects he either forgets to complete, or couldn't hope to complete in a million years, and my mother is a totally emotion-driven person that completely ignores logic or reason and goes solely by whatever she feels, regardless of whether it makes any sense or not. I mean.. she literally does not believe scientists because scientists have FOUND NEW EVIDENCE AND CHANGED THEIR OPINIONS....
She operates SOLELY on whatever her subconscious mind gives her, which is based on a pretty f*cked up past.

Together, they are a tornado of WTF.

While it sounds like your case may be a little extreme I dont think thats all that uncommon. I mean a woman working off emotion and not logic? A man thinking he is the end all be all in this world and all his families and friends decisions should be based off him?

Sounds to me like a lot of older married couples. I often think the same things or similar things you said above but definitely do not give them enough credit. I forget the fact they have been on this earth much longer than me and as you know nothing can make up for experience and time. Now I am not saying age is simply a measure of intelligence and being wise, but I do think our parents know much more than we see or give them credit for.

Yea. Sounds like it...
Boy would you be surprised... The foundation may be the same, but the level these two people take it to is certainly not normal, according to what I've witnessed myself after 31 years of living.
I know people argue.
That's not what I'm talking about.
These two are ****ing EVIL.

Wouldnt it be wonderful just to spend a day in someone elses head. Even if they were the dumbest person alive, imagine what you would learn and see differently.

Would be awesome, since empathy is totally extinct now. Now we can only dream that a basic human ability is achievable.

How do you mean?
