Dysfunctional Family—Nothing New
Yelling and screaming and kicking ass.
“I’ll teach you not to come in here with grass.”
An average day in the dysfunctional family.
“Search his room in every nook and cranny.”
“What the hell is this white powdery stuff?”
“Don’t give me any shit. I’ll call your bluff!”
“Please, find a girl that will treat you right.”
“Pimples on your face is no reason to fight.”
“Your report card is worse than a political rating.”
“You look like a fool.—– It is so degrading.”
“Find some new friends with motivation.”
“They can sit on this for a rotation.”
“Have you considered this? GET A JOB!!”
“Learn something besides staring at a blog.”
“The day will come when you will wish you listened.”
“ Don’t talk back!! And NO, I’m not bitchin.”
“What was that??” “Grandpa said what??”
“Grandpa is nuts. He is in a rut.”
“I am NOT, nor have I ever been like you.”
“What do you take me for? Some kind of fool?”
“He would have the report cards to prove it.”
“But, just cause he says so didn’t mean I do it.”
“I know. I know. Like father, like son.”
“Being a parent is so much fun.”
“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”
“Just ask your great grandpa and you will see.”
