My father is something else.
He loves this joke. "A polar bear went to his teacher and said, 'Am I a polar bear?' And the teacher says, 'Yes, you're a polar bear.' And so he goes to his mother and asks, 'Are you sure I'm a polar bear?' And the mother says, "Yes, honey, you're a polar bear.' He goes to his father and implores, 'Dad, are you really, really sure I'm a polar bear?' And the father says, 'Of course you're a polar bear! Why do you keep asking everyone if you're really a polar bear?' And the polar bear says, 'Because I'm f**king freezing!'"
We were just discussing the joke, and he said, "Is that supposed to have penguins or polar bears?"
I said, "I really don't think it matters."
He said, "Yes, it does! I know it does! Because penguins look cold! In that movie, they're all huddled up because they're cold!" Now on a roll, he triumphantly concluded, "They'd leave if they could, but their legs are too damn short!"
Honestly, I should get a nanny-cam and record him at all times.
