So I’m meeting my mom and dad in a few hours for supper at the China Buffet. We both have to drive about an hour to accomplish this and that’s cool, it’s worth it to see my mom and dad (and eat Chinese.) So we’re meeting because my mom has an optometrist appointment and well they have to eat and I have the night off, so cool we’ll meet.
So funny story about this place, when my brother was in high school he actually got kicked out while he was with a group of friends. They ate too much, he wasn’t in on that, he’s actually a pretty picky eater and super skinny (the only gene I wish I had from them) and wouldn’t have eaten too much. I remember that even in high school the kid had the smarts to be mortified by what his friends did. They weren’t the brightest bunch. I’ve never heard of anyone getting kicked out of a buffet for eating too much though, I kinda thought the point was that you could eat what you wanted, but whatever.
I’m sure my dad will be on about some crazy thing. His current is that he is convinced that Barack Obama is Muslim. As if it matters right? Well my dad has stupid things in his head about faith and religion and yeah, he is prejudiced. Some idiot friend of his keeps sending his emails that are propaganda and false too. So I told dad, you go to www.snopes.comand find out if that stuff is true when you get it. So he gets an email when I’m home, I say, did you go to Snopes? He says, well it says on the email that someone already did. Ok dad, the point in me telling you that is so you can investigate these blatant lies on your own, but whatever, believe whatever. I love the man, but he is one of those “I found it on the net so it must be true” people. It’s ludicrous of course and makes Mom and I laugh hysterically at him. I’ve been considering making up a bunch of propaganda emails and spamming him. What can I come up with to scare him off McCain I wonder?
So those are my plans for the day, too exciting I know, I live the party life.
