MY MOTHER, most definitely. Not even close. It's not that I hate my Dad, it's just that he's so..... long........ winded..................... for example:
"Hey, Dad, can I borrow your car this afternoon?"
"Well, let's discuss some things first..."
(10 minutes later)
" The responsibility of driving is a great thing, Kenny."
(30 minutes later)
"I remember when I was your age, I didn't even have a car..."
(One hour later)
"You should never stop learning things, Kenny."
(Two hours later)
"Try new things... expand your horizons..."
(Three hours later)
"Why, I remember one time when I was working for my uncle..."
(Five hours later)
"... but the dang light just wouldn't come out! I tried everything I could, well, everything besides the sledgehammer..."
(Ten hours later)
"Take yourself out of your comfort zone, Kenny. It will only benefit you..."
So anyway... if you try to discuss something with him, you're not going to be going anywhere for a while...
