Parents are fun sometimes
MST3K-ish commentary on a really shitty old movie:
Dad: "Well, the guns won't work, let me try that pitchfork!"
Eb: "No, that just pissed him off real good."
Dad: "Here, let me save you with this...shovel!"
Me: "That should work better than the guns and pitchfork."
Dad: "Okay, guys, it is time to go."
Me: "Good job guys! We locked the injured man in the barn with the monster!"
Eb: "Oh, wait...he wasn't dead? Is he dead -now-?"
By then we were laughing too hard to continue.
During tea with my mom:
Mom: "I got "An Unfinished Life" the other day, and I haven't watched it. I don't really know what it is about. But the trailer looked good."
Me: "I was going to rent it, but it was out at our Blockbuster."
Mom: "It is supposed to be good, it has Morgan Freeman and some other guy."
Me: "Robert Redford."
Mom: ...
Eb: "I think Jennifer Lopez is in it too."
Mom: ...
Me: "I need to remember to check the next time it is in."
Mom: *incredulously* "He's gotten so OLD!!! He used to be so FINE, and now he's OLD! Are you sure?"
By then we were laughing too hard to continue the conversation. Once the giggles died down I said "I'm definately putting this on my Livejournal." So here we are...now people will understand if I randomly add "he's gotten so OLD" to a conversation. It is just that funny, if you knew my mom, you'd understand.
