The Legacy of the List #4

Wheeee... It's list time again. Today I will feature: A List of Annoying Habits of my dad. {I'm sure he'll take it lightly.}
  • his compulsive ways of always pressing the "skip" button when listening to music. a song never gets finished.
  • the other button he is always compulsively pushing when watching TV would be the "guide" button. never do I get a break of looking at that stupid blue screen when he's got the remote.
  • always leaving the phone away from his ear when dialing. {apparently it's got something to do with radiation.} it takes 2 minutes for him EACH TIME to realize that I've already picked up and was waiting for him to answer since he called in the first place. do I need to keep a tally of these occurrences?
  • always being erroneous when calculating time intervals.
  • stashing tissues in his pockets. he rarely remembers to take them out.
  • talking in half-sentences.

The last two are rather mild, actually.

Well since it would be unfair if I didn't make one for my mom and myself, I shall do that in the near future.

NO, THE FACT THAT I MADE THIS LIST FIRST HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING. I ONLY REMEMBERED BECAUSE A SAW A TV REMOTE, AND YOU GET THE POINT. You guys think too much.

Ha, it's be funny if you {Dad or Mom} found this several years later, {since you don't read it regularly}. That's what you get for not reading when I ask. :P

At the Movies

Do you like movies? Well, do you watch them? You've watched at least one, right? Or maybe I'm wrong. But, my family sure watches a lot. We have Netflix, so we don't really like to purchase DVD's. Sometimes we go to the library. Anyway, recently, for the times that I've been watching movies with my mom, she always has this funny habit. {Yes, I'm aware that I'm posting this on the international internet, but 1. she doesn't read my blog, 2. she doesn't read my blog, and 3. she doesn't read my blog.} Whether it's an action movie, a romance movie, a horror movie, a mystery movie, or an animation, she tends to try to predict what might happen later on. Just like anyone, right? Except, when she's predicting, it's always about death. And she's always talking about how blahblahblah is probably dead and how blahblahblah is also dead and maybe even blahblahblah is dead as well. Haha, I know, funny huh? Although, one thing is that: she says it with such certainty. Instead of: Is blahblahblah dead? It becomes: Blahblahblah is dead. {notice the "period" shows that it is statement.} In the past, my reaction would have been: OH MY GOSH REALLY? And recently, I've just learned that this really is going to carry on with the same pattern. Mom, please stop saying blahblahblah is dead.... it's hard to follow the plot when there are not characters. O_o
