Current Events > Did your parents have any weird habits when you were growing up?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I caught my step dad drinking out of the communal milk and orange juice cartons. I called him out and he blew up, telling me how he'll do what he wants since he paid for it. I think it was a spiteful act just to make us not want to drink it.

They also kept naked polaroids of themselves 'hidden' away. Never quite understood that since they see each other in person every night.

for masturbatory reasons

My dad thought that sneaking up on little old ladies in a grocery store and farting as he walked past was the most hilarious thing in the world.

You don't understand that but you grew up in the age of sexting. *smh* People didn't have smart phones back then, dude.

Some of my dad's quirks include, yawning real loudly for a long time, slurping his coffee as loudly as he could and saying ah! after taking a refreshing drink. All of these annoyed my mother while they were together so naturally I've picked two of the three up (I don't drink coffee.)

When my mom gets really angry she'll develop a weird underbite on instinct.

My step dad does those things as well. The yawn seems to mean he's really bored with the situation and wants to leave, or if home he wants others to leave so he can do something else.

Calling me at work. Fuck sakes mom.

I meeeeaaaan...

My grandad (he lived with us) would get mad if you slept in late but if you woke up early too he'd tell you to go back to bed.

Figured out he was watching porn on the computer. Weird part was he was simply watching it nothing else. I caught him several times.

My parents were Midwesterners living in California, so everything was weird.

They used to sell a lot of cocaine, which none of my friends parents seemed to do, so I guess that was a weird habit.

I used to buy weed off my best friends mom. Was the 2nd most convenient dealer I had cause there was nothing suspicious about me hanging out ar my best friends house.

I heard my step dad did coke, but only saw him with weed. He had a bunch of what looked like quarter bags in his sock drawer so I guess he was selling it. I used to pinch some now and then when I smoked.

I once caught them doing it and they didnt even close their fucking bedroom door. I was outraged. Like, have some consideration

I remember one time we had too much milk, so I put some in the freezer and then my dad got really annoyed when he found it frozen

kinda this, but mine moved from east Africa.

I used to not appreciate it, but now I admire how much they tried to pass on a lot of their culture on to us.

These are completely normal dad sounds.

Currently. His cooking He keeps out of date food for way too long and uses it. I asked him kindly while I'm staying with him till I get better that he not do that. For example he made chicken soup but put angel hair pasta in it. He also Cut it very small. I like rice but he still made it. It didnt get touched. I didn't want to tell him it's slop
