Funny things your dad did ?

I just reminded myself of this in another thread.
 
When driving with him in the car, he told me the ciggy lighter was a turbo button (I was 5). It looks a bit like an exhaust with smoke, hes explanation LOL
 
He'd tell me to press it, then obviously toe the gas, which I thought was the turbo working. Makes me chuckle now !
 
What about you and your dad ?

Whenever I asked my Dad who was on the phone, he would reply 'It's a man about a dog'.

I couldn't work out why some guy used to phone the house so often to talk about a dog.

HAHA - Taking things too literal. I was the same when he said 'I've got a bone to pick with you'.

In my head I was thinking about digging up the garden :)

I'm ashamed to say that that one used to get me as well.

when ever my dad was going anywhere (be it the pub, shop, neighbours) and i would ask where he was off too, if he didnt want me to come he would say "im going to buy some nails"

my dad swore his fave football team was bare arse. i was only a nipper and had never heard of arsenal....

Another one...

On a extremely foggy morning he told me to watch from the window as he walked to the shop. He said he will make himself disapeer.

I didn't really fall for that one after I saw he slowly disapeer into the mist. Dissapointed to say the least.

He used to tell me if i strip naked as fast as i can and touch his bum before he could, i'd get extra sweets. We used to play this game right up until I was 11 and then all of a sudden I never saw him again

My Dad used to tell me we were distantly related to Romanian royalty. And he used to blush when reading the Emperor's New Clothes when it came to the page with the picture of the emperor's bum.

He used to love asking me to pull his finger................

I can't recall what forum it was but I threw one little c.unt into a sentence and you'd have thought I'd bummed one of their grandmas

Can't think of anything off the top of my head which is quite sad

My dad told me that the condom machine on the sh1t house wall in the boozer sold naughty balloons.... They had pictures on them of naked ladies apparently.

For many years i asked for some naughty balloons... Even when other people were near us as i didnt have a clue what thet were so didnt see a problem in it.. haha

My dad always used to pretend the car was running out of petrol and making it run all juddery by bouncing his foot on the accelerator. I now do the same!

Whenever I asked my grandad 'why?', he always said "because Y isn't Z and Z isn't Y".

My dad told me that between him and his twin brother, they knew everything there was to know.
If I asked him something he didn't know, he'd say "Our David knows that one!".

By grand father used to work in a grocers that had an old stable yard at he back. Lying around was an old, much battered 56 lb weight minus it's handle.

"What's that for Grandad?" I asked
"Catching rabbits lad" he replied
"How do you catch rabbits with that?" I asked
"Place it in the centre of the room" he explained, "cover it with lettuce leaves, and some pepper, then the rabbits will come to eat the lettuce and get pepper up their noses, they sneeze and knock themselves out. In the morning, I just pick them up"
"I've never seen any rabbits in here" I observed
"Caught 'em all lad" said he with a grin

As far as I know, forgiveness is for the benefit of the person doing the forgiving, not the one being forgiven

He used to salute magpies as well

My father has / had the magic ability to give me a dead arm or leg with the first punch everytime.

I think he must have studied Chinese medicine....

Sometimes he would punch me a bit too hard and I would cry.  Even though this was play fighting, I'm guessing it would be perceived differently in this day and age.

i have never met him.
no, really lol.

calm down, its life, mate, its only a game

He used to love asking me to pull his finger................

That one always cracked me up.

'League 1 here we come.'

'Fcuk off Briatorie,fcuk off'.

used to pretend that a man with a long beard gave me presents at Christmas - I think people still do that even to this day

Some brilliant stuff here, my dad was always acting daft and cracking rubbish jokes all the time, all my mates loved him.
One of the things that sticks out was the Hawaii 5.0 show, as soon as the theme tune came on it was wrestling time my dad v's me and my bro.
When dad was away, me and my bro used to get a bit carried away without the third man and mam was right 'its gonner end in tears' .... always did.lol

Thinking about it Starsky and Hutch and The Professionals theme tunes had the same effect..

"Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.   Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad"

 

Used to make me turn the TV over before remotes were invented-when remotes came out he'd say what do we want one of them for weve got kids.

How dare you queston my heritage!! theirs a bottle of HP sauce in my fridge.

My old man was/is the king of "No Money Fun"  If he could get away without spending the money, he would.

After watching Blue Peter when I was about 6-7, I decided I wanted to buy some glitter (Think it was about 10p a jar from the local shop)

"I'll make some instead" came the reply from Dad when I asked for the money.

He went to my sandpit (again, what he had made from some old wood and a load of sand we nicked from the local beach), and got a cup full of sand.

He got one of my mums best pans out, and added the sand and a load of food coloring, and put in on the stove to heat  up & dry out.

After about an hour, the pan was ruined, the house stunk; and the glitter was just about useless!

Great times though!
