My dad

A few benta conversations with my dad. He does have a sense of humor. He's just not aware of it and actually considers it as intellect.

Scene 1: Discussing with him the notion of acquiring another car.....

Me: Kasi pa, mas madali. Hindi na kayo ma-ha-hassle sa paghatid....... etc etc (and all advantages I can think of)

Dad (with his eyes wide-open as if he thought of something very brilliant): Anak, ok lang yan. May pinag-aaralan naman ako ngayon...

Me: Ano yun?

Dad: TELEPORTATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-----------------------
Scene 2: This is actually a phone conversation with him. Right now, he's in SanFo and he called to tell me he's buying clothes for pasalubong. Wherever he goes, he doesn't forget to buy me shirts. Unfortunately, he buys me T-shirts and gets offended when I don't wear them to school. And so before he made a purchase.............

Dad: I'm buying you shirts right now.

Me: Pa! Yung baby tee! Sabihin mo ... BABY TEE!!!

Dad: Ano?!! Ano ung pang-BABY?! BAKIT?!

--------------------------------------
Scene 3: Every night, before I go to sleep, I go to my parents' room and kiss them goodnight. Sometimes I sleep too late that when I get to their room, they're already in deep sleep. I try to approach them, nonetheless. So as I was about to kiss my dad, he awoke and exclaimed.....

Dad: Sino ka?! Sino ka?! (positioning his fist as if he was going to punch me)

haha
------------------------------------
Scene 4: He always claims to be a UP Law graduate. Thing is, he's not and everyone knows that. He just loves teasing me about it. If you listen to the radio every so often, you might have heard of the UP quiz and I dared him to answer all questions correctly to prove he was indeed from UP. He got almost all 5 questions right (well, about the UP Ikot fare, I didn't know if he was right) but that one thing that got us all laughing:

Question: Saang kanta galing ang line na "Di pa rin magbabago ang damdamin"?

With all conviction he answered............................

Dad: UP Kong Minamahal!!!!!
Us: Ha? UP Naming Mahal!
Dad: Kelan lang yan binago. Nung panahon ko, UP Kong Minamahal yun.

hahahahaha

Hahahaha. I think I'm just missing him right now.
