My parents just told us we'd be grounded one day for every minute we were late. I'm a guy and never went out in high school, but my sisters made damn sure their boyfriends got them home on time.
Don't have kids, probably never will, but I can sympathize with parents not wanting to be woken at 3am by an annoying teen. But also I recognize that is just what is going to happen.
My parents tried all sorts of things to get me to behave more like a responsible adult, and yet I behaved like an irresponsible teen. I just sucked up the punishment when I had to as a cost of doing business (and by business I mean staying out late on a school night)
I was barely in our family home from the age of 15+. Not because my parents were bad, but because it was what I wanted to do. My brother was home every night and in bed before midnight on weekends. I was the one saying "I'm going to a different city for the weekend, back Sunday night"
If they had punished me for it, I would have just done it when the punishment was over.
10:30? More like whatever time it is in that frame plus however long it takes to walk to the car and say "good luck with your crazy father, but I'm out".
Both pronunciations are identical. Unless you showed someone both at the same time and told them to take a very close look at them, Nobody would even notice there's a difference and everyone would pronounce them as expected.
What do you mean? That's what the comment 'boomer meme/humour' is referring to for example, that this meme appeals primarily to people born during the post WWII baby boom.
Ah yes, the daughter as an object/possession, a cornerstone of misogyny..
Don't worry, the daddy daughter dance at the chastity ball is 100% normal and cool
🤢🤮
What about "dads are protective of their daughters"?
Edit: better yet, "parents are protective of their children"
My parents made me regret coming late by being disappointed at me, not by threats.
Your parents didn't shoot multiple partners of yours??
Next you're gonna tell me your parents aren't deers

Okay, and this is a comic strip, not an instruction manual
I gotta say, if some chud pulled a gun on my kid like this, I would get real protective real quick.
Boomer meme
Loser comment
Self-descriptive comment.
Ok boomer, off to bed with you.
Boomer humour
What in boomeristan is this
Turns out the daughter slows down on purpose at the end of the date so the friend is too late in bringing her home on time.
She also deliberately dates assholes she would rather see death.
This is a murder spree ran by her and her father.
Pretty sure this is the plot to >!Get Out.!<

I'm using an app, so I would never have known, thanks! And sorry if I spoiled that :(
This boomer humor needs to go die the sad little death it deserves.
I think at that point those two deer can just leave and never have to come back.

Do we have a r/comedynecromancy equivalent on Lemmy? These would make for a decent base for that.
Who pronounces it m'kay instead of 'mkay?
Both pronunciations are identical. Unless you showed someone both at the same time and told them to take a very close look at them, Nobody would even notice there's a difference and everyone would pronounce them as expected.
I disagree. I would read 'mkay as "mm-kay" and m'kay more like "muh-kay" (similar to m'lady)
Damn, so did i but I did the exact total opposite.....mm- Kay is just like mm-bop. 'Milady and 'mkay are samesies.
The ageism is strong in this thread.
People are saying this isn't funny to young people who would be horrified by this.
The humor or lack there of has nothing to do with it.
What do you mean? That's what the comment 'boomer meme/humour' is referring to for example, that this meme appeals primarily to people born during the post WWII baby boom.
If you say so.
What do you think they were saying? That seemed like the most straightforward interpretation.
And piles of dirty laundry spawning rats was the most straightforward interpretation during the black plague.
Okay... Do you want to tell want you think the comments are actually saying and why? Then we can compare.
Which do you hate more, this thread or your spouse?
Have you stopped beating your child?
Lmao what
Always somebody looking for any excuse to be offended... and they call us snowflakes.
Bigotry should offend everyone. But no, snow flakes are each unique fractals. So I'd never call you one.
Bigotry, when it's actually bigotry, is reasonable to be offended by. This ain't it.
