Title: Two things
Post by: Oldman731 on April 25, 2011, 09:22:15 PM
Thing one:  Little girls are the best.  Your life has been changed forever, for the good.

Thing two:  Save the following.  It will prove very useful some years from now.  Trust me on this.

- oldman

TEN SIMPLE RULES FOR DATING MY DAUGHTER.

Rule One:  If you pull into my driveway and honk, you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.

Rule Two:  You do not touch my daughter in front of me.  You may glance at her, so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck.  If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.

Rule Three:  I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips.  Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are complete idiots.  Still, I want to be fair and open minded about this issue, so I propose this compromise: You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object.  However, in order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.

Rule Four:  I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without utilizing a barrier method of some kind can kill you. Let me elaborate:  when it comes to sex, I am the barrier, and I will kill you.

Rule Five:  In order for us to get to know each other, we should talk about sports, politics, and other issues of the day.  Please do not do this.  The only information I require from you is an indication of when you expect to have my daughter safely back at my house, and the only word I need from you on this subject is "early."

Rule Six:  I have no doubt you are a popular fellow, with many opportunities to date other girls.  This is fine with me as long as it is okay with my daughter.  Otherwise, once you have gone out with my little girl, you will continue to date no one but her until she is finished with you.  If you make her cry, I will make you cry.

Rule Seven:  As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget.  If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating.  My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process that can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like changing the oil in my car?

 
Rule Eight:  The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter:  Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool.  Places where there are no parents, policemen, or nuns within eyesight.  Places where there is darkness.  Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness.  Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter to wear shorts, tank tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka zipped up to her throat.  Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided; movies which feature chainsaws are okay.  Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes are better.

Rule Nine: Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a pot-bellied, balding, middle-aged, dim-witted has-been.  But on issues relating to my daughter, I am the all- knowing, merciless god of your universe.  If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and five acres behind the house. Do not trifle with me.

Rule Ten:  Be afraid.  Be very afraid.  It takes very little for me to mistake the sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming in over a rice paddy outside of Hanoi.  When my Agent Orange starts acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home.  As soon as you pull into the driveway you should exit your car with both hands in plain sight.  Speak the perimeter password, announce in a clear voice that you have brought my daughter home safely and early, then return to your car...there is no need for you to come inside.  The camouflaged face at the window is mine.

Rule Seven:  As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget.  If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating.  My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process that can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like changing the oil in my car?

 
Rule Eight:  The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter:  Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool.  Places where there are no parents, policemen, or nuns within eyesight.  Places where there is darkness.  Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness.  Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter to wear shorts, tank tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka zipped up to her throat.  Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided; movies which feature chainsaws are okay.  Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes are better.

Rule Nine: Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a pot-bellied, balding, middle-aged, dim-witted has-been.  But on issues relating to my daughter, I am the all- knowing, merciless god of your universe.  If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and five acres behind the house. Do not trifle with me.

Rule Ten:  Be afraid.  Be very afraid.  It takes very little for me to mistake the sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming in over a rice paddy outside of Hanoi.  When my Agent Orange starts acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home.  As soon as you pull into the driveway you should exit your car with both hands in plain sight.  Speak the perimeter password, announce in a clear voice that you have brought my daughter home safely and early, then return to your car...there is no need for you to come inside.  The camouflaged face at the window is mine.


Hi Tech, look at the back of your daughter's birth certificate.  These rules should be already printed on there, at least they were when mine was born 25 years ago.  Baby girls are the most precious of all.   :aok

Dale has just managed, in a single post, to discredit the entire history of the "geek" culture.

You can be a video game addict and..

1) Not live in your moms basement
2) Have a social life and learn to actually fly a plane
3) Get a date
4) Get a SECOND date
5) Marry
6) Have a life
7) Contribute in a small way towards creating a life
8) Grow old(er) and gray keeping the boys away for the next 20 years!

Congratulations Dale.

As a father of a 15 year old at the ripe young age of 48, I can only laugh my butt off at what you are about to endure!

Godspeed and Congratulations Sir!  Give my best to the Mrs. who quite frankly really did all the hard work  :P

I looked up other important events that happened on the 20th of April:

-1775 – American Revolutionary War: the Siege of Boston begins, following the battles at Lexington and Concord.
-1792 – France declares war on Austria, the beginning of French Revolutionary Wars.
-1889 - Adolf Hitler was born at around 6:30 pm on 20 April 1889 at the Gasthof zum Pommer.
-1918 – Manfred von Richthofen, aka The Red Baron, shoots down his 79th and 80th victims, his final victories before his death the following day.
-1972 – Apollo 16, commanded by John Young, lands on the moon .
-2010 – The Deepwater Horizon oil well explodes in the Gulf of Mexico, killing eleven workers and beginning an oil spill that would last five months.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Fathering!  :banana:

Ah life is good.

Of course with lots of new things to pay for on the horizon including flying lessons, a plane of her own, college, a wedding, you might want to start thinking about this number...
