My dad’s English is pretty good, but sometimes he just says things and you are like whaaaaaat? The other day, he was talking to my sister in-law on the phone, who recently got into Harvard for graduate school. This was my dad’s reaction:
Dad, “So I heard you got into Harvard for graduate school, that is very….uhhh…. adequate.”

I reached a financial goal, and I told myself, once I reach it, I’d invest in some mutual funds. I have a basic idea on how mutual funds work, but I wanted to understand it better. So I asked my dad, who’s an accounting professor:
Me: Dad, how do mutual funds work?
Dad: It’s like a bibimbap of stocks. If the bibimbap is tasty, you can sell it for a profit. If the bibimbap is not tasty, you fire the fund manager and probably lose money.

I sent an email to my dad wishing him a happy Father’s Day. He sent a very touching email back. I wish he knew how to spell my name though.
Dear Jennie,
Thank you for your email. You know I love you very very much. More than your brother most of the time. I talk to mom. We think your future is more bright than his. Do not spend too much time on this thing called facebook. Maybe one hour per day.
Love,
you daddy

Whenever my friend and his family visits American restaurants, they only order hamburgers because that’s the only food they know how to order in English. However, they’ve always desperately wanted to try eating an American steak, so one night at a Sizzlers, my friend’s dad wanted to be adventurous and try ordering a steak (remember, he doesn’t know ANY English)…
Waitress: Hi guys, have you guys decided what you want?
Dad: Steak.
Waitress: Okay, how do you want that cooked?
Dad: …Steak.
Waitress: Right, okay, so how do you want it? Rare, medium, well done?
Dad: Yes.
Waitress: Yeah I know… umm, do you want it pink? Red? What color?
(Dad puts his head down in shame)
Dad: …Hamburger…

While talking to my dad on the phone, I decided to ask him if I could go on a trip…
Me: Dad, can I go to Korea?
Dad: When?
Me: Whenever.
Dad: Okay, I’ll pay for roundtrip ticket right now if you go and never come back until you find a husband.
