logansrogueThey got me the COOLEST HAT EVER! Which I shall take a photo of myself in tomorrow. I am so fucking delighted with this hat. It also keeps my head incredibly warm, which, considering how fucking cold it is lately, is a real relief.
Dad's giving me plenty of ammo for my blog about him that I'm going to build now he's back. It'll be called "Grumpy Old German Guy/Man" (can't figure out which it should be, guy or man) and it'll be all about Dad being, well - a grumpy old German dude. I was playing Animal Crossing on the Wii and he hadn't seen a Wii before. It wasn't here before he left. I was explaining what I was doing in the game. But he doesn't hear so well.
So he heard me explaining my finding Joan the Sow to buy turnips and sell them later at a higher price and exclaimed, "That's a pyramid scheme!" I blinked. "What?"
"Who you gonna rip off with that? Some poor unsuspecting..." He mumbled then and I thought that he was showing remarkable concern for these fictional anthropomorphic animals.
"I'm just buying and selling-"
"Turnips go off!" he said.
"Well, yeah," I agreed. Wow. He really knew the ins and out of Animal Crossing - waaaaait a minute. Dad knew shit all about computer games. "Dad... I meant in the game."
"OH!" He laughed and was incredibly relieved that I wasn't going to start growing turnips and selling them in real life. Man, I laughed so hard. God damn, it's good to have these bastards back! :)
