My dad has been in America for a long time, but his understanding of idioms and phrases is still limited.

Me: Frank Sinatra could sing for a long time.
Dad: Yeah, he could really belch it out.
Me: Belch?  What the hell?
Dad: Yeah.

Me: I fucking love Lady Gaga.
Dad: She’s just a flash in the pants.

Dad: He’s butt-naked.
Me: Butt-naked?  Isn’t it buck-naked?
Dad: That doesn’t make any sense.

My dad is a gift-giver, and he recently presented me with these three gifts after a business trip to Shanghai. The middle koala thing is a little four-holed out of tune ocarina necklace, and the koala is glued on, so there’s no getting rid of it quietly… PS, I am 21 years old.

I called my Dad to wish him Happy Birthday. It turns out my parents were out shopping at the outlets.

He said, “I’m in the car waiting. You know your Mom. Always shopping. First for handbags at the Dooney Dooney. Then Coach something. Coach First Class, whatever.”

We asked our parents to officiate at our wedding. When it was my father-in-law’s turn to speak, he looked around proudly and recited…

“Who takes this broad to be his lawfully wedded wife?”

Dear J,

It is an advice that after each lunch meal, you drink some water, before swallow in, to use your tong to go around teeth and to clean them, if you don’t brush them after meal. It is realy good practice to keep your teeth healthy for long term.

Love,
Dad

Dad: hey YOU’re carrying a purse.

Mom: you mean SEXIEST, yubo.
Me: whaat?  you fobs, you mean SEXIST?!!

My sister was talking to my dad about a friend on fb who posted a somewhat offensive note and keeps trying to IM her.

Sister: He’s so annoying–I just ignore him all the time.
Dad: Why don’t you deface him?
Sister: Really?
Dad: Yea! I do it all the time!

*Silence*

Sister: You mean “unfriend” him?
Dad: But it’s FACE-book.
