Scene: The last 5 minutes of Twilight is on. When I say last I mean the laaast scene where everyone’s at the prom.
Dad (watching me watch Twilight): “Who is this guy with the long hair?”
Me: “Who, Jacob Black?”
Dad: “The guy with the long hair, whatever his name is.”
Me: “Bella’s friend. He becomes a werewolf in Part 2
Dad: “What do you mean BECOMES a werewolf? He’s not one now?”
Me (still patient): “Well not really, his clan is descended from werewolves and he will BECOME one if there are too many vampires in the neighborhood.”
Dad: “Clan descended aa? Ok.”
< 10 seconds pause >
Dad: “He doesn’t like vampires?”
Me: “Werewolves are sworn enemies of vampires.”
Dad: “And this girl likes both the wolf and the vampire?”
Me (losing patience): Yes!
<10 second pause>
Dad: “How can a human being BECOME a werewolf?”
Me (lost it): “LEMME WATCH THE DAMN MOVIE, DAD!!”
Dad (smug smile on his face): “Ok.”
Try watching The Matrix with him the next time.
