I just thought of this when me and paladin were talking about old school cameras.
What embarassing things do your parents do to you?
Please do tell (we wont tell anyone :UBEREVIL: )
I'll think up of something l8r. I'm going to school :toungemove:

Dad: You know the annoying guy that always asks questions? You know THE guy who's always annoying everyone cuz he loks so damn smart?(and they actually are!!). That's my dad... Each time we go somewhere, hes always asking questions about everything, plus, he's always repeting stuffs when he does that...
- Ex: "Ok... You said this machine was [blabla], b-but what happens if... I mean, what will happen if ever [blabla] w-while it's [blabla]
You get the point...
Mom: Nothing... She's... normal I guess. There's the usual "cool" desease, though. I doupt my mom is the only one doing this anyway. You know, when she says "I'm not cool? Of course I am cool!", and she starts dancing in the kitchen... There's absolutly NO ONE around except me and my bro, and we both are extremly embarassed... You see how it goes...

My parents keep bugging me about bringing my girlfriend over because they "want to get to know her." Fortunately, her parents don't like her to be gone for long periods of time during the day, and they don't mind me being over there. My parents just hang around and try to make conversation (which generally fails but is continued because my girlfriend is polite...)

Waste money on buying crap they never use then ##### at each other for wasting money on crap they never use. And then they ask stupid questions like "why are we sooooo broke?"

Well its not really embarassing, but everytime I buy another game, console or device, they ask, "Don't you already have enough games/electronics?" They don't understand the point of owning more than one. But whats even worse is when they attempt to buy me a game for my birthday, and of course they have no idea what they're doing some they get me something like: Finding Nemo: The Game, I'm just glad I wasn't there when they bought it. :erm:

rofl as in she asked if she should flip it over?
What I hate is that adults usually don't know the difference...
between DBZ, Pokemon, Digimon, random pics that people draw, Kirby, and various other things. And the way they pronounce names...
"Dee Beh Zee?"
"Pokymon"
"Digitalmon"
"Kar-bee"
Ugh...

Most embarrasing thing? Well, this is more like annoying. It's her grammer in things like e-mails and letters. You can hardly tell what she's trying to say, since everything is really messed up and it sounds like a three-year old talking. Terrible.
And also, her pronouciation of words, which I have been trying to correct for YEARS! It's Tiramisu, not Tashamishi!

Oh my. That's the opposite of my mom. In an e-mail, she's understandable and doesn't sound at all... amazingly disturbingly grumpy and wierd.
When she speaks to me or my brother, it's a different matter though...
Atleast she knows how to speak to other people. Maybe it's because she's not telling them what to do, and so she can't tell them to do one thing then give them a contradictory order to be followed out in the next few seconds. Wait, that's not improper english, it's just wuierd mom...

Okay, I just thought of something.
My mom is really down on todays technology. While I'm building websites and programming, shes trying to figure out the difference between right and left click. One day, my sister assisted her and set up MSN messenger at her work place. From seeing her kids, she soon learned how to use it. She thought of it as a big acolpishment.
Anyways, we were talking with family friends. One of them had worse skill in computers (a joke I said: "Didn't learn how to turn a computer on until he got the 'clapper'") than my mom did. My mom egarly bragged about how she managed to send a message over the internet.

Oh... my... odd. Glad my mom isn't the kind that has to be shown how to e-mail, keep information, or anything else that any computer user should know... In fact, she knows a HELL of a lot more than I do. Not that I know much...
EDIT:
Oh, and, even though I don't know much, atleast I know more than people I meet at school. I had to show one that you can MANUALLY roll the rollers in a mouse with a removed ball, I didn't come CLOSE to explaining to them that there is absolutely no difference from using a keyboard to select "Shutdown" from the start menu to using the mouse, that you can use the keyboard for almost ANYTHING a mouse can do, and then very much some... Well, I know HARDLY more than anyon else, and what I just said is more on the side of Computer USE, but still, I know more...

My mom syas that I work "too fast" on the computer so she can't keep up with hat i'm doing, so therefore, she's not learning. The funny thing is that I'm already at such a slow pace that I wait for at least 2 second everytime before I do something. And she still considers that "fast".

...
I type at perhaps 1.5 keys per second, and people I have to put up with consider that fast. Why is it that people in 7-8th grade are such computer idiots?
I mean, I could probably say something like "Put a shortcut to the program files folder located in drive C, onto the start menu and then create a sub-folder from there to put my stuff in that" and they'd be confused as hell.
So sad...
