In either case you could just respond that if her father paid more attention they'd be nice and shiny.
What made me laugh today...

Mrs WPT & I were watching TV. Mrs WPT was sitting on the corner of the couch on the phone to one of her nieces. I'm on the corner of another couch - sort of at right angles to each other while Mrs WPT was also patting the cat.
Dog came up (jealous) wagging it's tail to be patted by Mrs WPT (large dog - standard poodle x with lab) he then realizes not 6" from his head is a chunk of magnificent Plum cake. Opened his mouth & he almost had it when I noticed what he was doing - amazingly he didn't take a bite - & went back to his mat!!
Many years ago he took a whole hunk of freshly cooked Turkey breast in a similar manner - at head height for him!!

Hehe, Chloe got a bit of hubbies fish cakes once, I just rounded them up again so he didn't notice.
I am the queen of open mouth insert foot! My daughter went for a UNi exam, then was going to a friends to watch a "charmed" marathon.
She walked in the door about 1/2 an hour ago while me hubby and junior were clowning around. I said "what are you doing here? Your spost to be at the gay guys house?"
He follows her in and says "I'm here"

Don't worry, embarrasing one's kids is in the parent handbook under job description. You certainly achived your KPI on that part!

I'm just glad he has a sense of humour. I actually feel really bad, he's such a lovely guy! It just kinda came out, cos we do a lot of the jerry Seinfeld stuff around here, you know, not that there's anything wrong with that!
But i had to donate my box of chockys in penance.
I just wish they weren't, um, maltesers.
Yes, I gave the gay guy balls
I think junior will stop laughing about next century! She just can't look at me!

For mine, I'll cut a long story back. I inherited a setup a few years back with 2 women job sharing a team leaders role. One retired in december so the other became the "queen".
She turned 65 recently and we spoke about her desire to cut her hours back, to which I agreed but I told her I don't like job shared management roles so she would drop back to operative and relinquish the team leader gig, which she was more than happy with. (I looked after her salary wise)
So today was her last day as full time before going on 4 weeks holiday and coming back part time and she made a big deal about anointing her successor as the new Queen. Then she says to me, "If {blah} is the new Queen, what am I?" So I said "You're the Queen Mother". They both cracked up.
Shortly after, the others in the department of WOW had a morning tea for her. Someone asked how she would cope only working 2 days a week, I interjected with " well she's going to have to condense 5 days worth of yapping into 2 so I hope she can also get some work done"
Bout an hour later she sent me an email. One of the finance guys 30km away sent her an email vowing allegiance to the new Queen Mother. Word gets around. She's a mad old bat, and good value. (I mean Mad in a good way)

She has a great sense of humour. It took her a couple of years to work out how far she could push me but once she settled on the boundary, she's great value. Wicked bitch but an absolute detail machine when it comes to getting the job done.
She's married to a dual VFl premiership player and one of her sons played basketball for Australia yet she's one of the most unaffected natural people I know. Great value and once we got things sorted, great support to me.

How to resign publicly and let the boss and everyone else know exactly what you think. Very nice work.

I was letterboxing for the Aust Sex party today and a chap came out and asked what I had put in his letterbox. "Election pamphlet for The Australian Sex Party.All legal mate" Then he says "It is all a lot of bullshit, they have a sign in Richmond. They want to legalize alcohol. They want people to be responsible for their own actions. Bloody rubbish". Screwed it up and I said "Ok, what ever you think . Your decision.Thanks for reading the literature"
I was talking to the candidate later tonight and telling her about it. I said don't worry about it Melissa. I doubt he has the intelligence to find the polling booth as they have changed.
