Replying to Dinner Table Talk
Lemme start off by saying I am in the whole about 6, oh maybe 7 beers right now, so you know this could either flop or survive beautifully.
What is a normal conversation around your dinner table? I'll start you off with what a family dinner in the Farrell household is like.
So we are at my parents summer house on Lake Champlain, up for the weekend because my sister is graduating from UVM, so of course, as you could probably tell, some drinking is involved. So my aunt and uncle are up, and my sister brought her boyfriend over for dinner, he is pretty quiet btw. So we are eating and you know, general conversation goes on. Then it starts. You know, when everyone has drank enough to not give a fuck. Well, my dad is basically this way in general, but anyway I digress. So we are talking about random shit, and then my aunt and uncle start talking about my grandam that went to visit her best friend from college last week (they are both 95), and I guess her friend lives in a nice apartment in Manhattan, but they were in her bedroom, not the living room. So my dad comes in and says "Well, when I'm 94 years old, I'ma want all the visiting ladies in the bedroom." I can't control myself and piss my pants laughing. Well not really piss my pants, it's a figure of speech silly.
Then we are looking at all this seaglass that we have found in the lake, and my aunt found a heart shaped one and my dad is like "Oh you should make that into a necklace." And my aunt is like oh yea that would be nice blah blah blah whatever. LOLOLOLOL, sorry, I'm still laughing from what is coming up next. So my dad says "Man, wouldn't that be perfect laying between her naked breasts" , mind you my aunt is in her early 60's. And I just burst out laughing with everyone else. Oh , but there is more. My uncle goes "Man, you would have to have a really long chain, we've been married for 80 years (jokingly)" and I was just dying, a little embarrassed at out normal dinner talk.
I just hope one day I can become the perverted old man that my dad is hahahahhaha.
So, tell me your dinner table talk. Doesn't have to be as detailed as mine, I tried to keep it short. Now I leave you with a french quote that prolly doesn't have relevance to any of this, but hey, what the hell.
A vaincre sans péril, on triomphe sans gloire.
