Conversation I Just Had With My Dad:
Dad: I sent you a really cute picture of a really cute dog that had to be put to sleep.
Me: BuuUUH?!? But why?
Dad: Because he just looked so cute in the picture.
Me:BUT NOW HE IS DEAD.
Dad: Any your mother cried so much while reading it.
Me: WHY?!?!?
Dad: He looked a bit like a female lion...
This kind of reminds me of the time he picked me up from a movie theatre because I was sick, and spent the ride home telling me about a pet store that burned to the ground, roasting all the lovable beasties inside with it. Then he proceeded to list exactly which kinds became charcoal.

Amazing - and shall I include (all in the same hour and a half).
My girlfriend and I get in the car, say 'Merry Christmas' to my Dad.
Dad - There is a fire at an apartment building down the road. At least one person's dead.
Grunk - Jesus Dad, why'd you have to say that.
(An Hour later, driving by the St. Lawrence Seaway on our way to our grandparents house with myself, Dad and my girlfriend).
Dad - I used to have a job working on the campsites by the seaway.
Grunk - Cool.
Dad - One night the captain of a ship was drunk, and capsized the boat, we couldn't see anything but we could hear the crew screaming for help as they drowned.
Grunk - for the love of Jesus, and I mean that literally, it's Christmas man, why'd you have to tell me this story.
Our amazing 'normal' family.
