    Anyone with embarrassing stories while growing up to do with their dad. One of my own most embarrassing was at a gathering involving friends and relatives. All the younger people, friends included stuck to their own section of the dance floor. However about half way through my dad, p!ssed drunk barges into our group, singing and dancing. I swore to god id never bring my friends and dad together at an event again after that.

    Twas my 11th or 12th birthday and my dad brought myself and a few of my mates to the cinema to see Groundhog Day. My dad regularly gets names of things and people confused sooff he went up to the ticket office and asked for 5 tickets to "Hedgehog Dog". Scarlet so I wuz back then but now it makes me smile and warms the cockles of my heart. Where did he pull that one out of!

    My dad is great craic altogether, and while I might have been embarrassed by him from time to time as a kid, you really shouldn't be as an adult.

    Absolutely no problem having my dad at events where my friends are and he enjoys a drink too!

    Yeah he was, anyone that came to visit him, they couldn't leave without seeing his ploughing clips.

    yeah.

    When I was a kid, we had a sh1t brown ford escort. My dad used to drop me to school in it and insist on driving right into the centre of the boys yard (i'm a girl). It used to mortify me. They'd all shout "here comes the sh1t-mobile". :pac:

    My sixty year old father is currently trying to pull off the leather jacket look some thirty years too late. Insists on wearing it everywhere in public. Fecking mid-life crises!

    My dad used to hide the telephone under a tea towel when people came over as he didn't want them to start asking "could they make a phone call" - he always denied to neighbours he had a phone until one day he had to explain the ringing tea towel (this was in the late 70's):D

    My dad is a cheeky git. He used to drive me to school when I was in primary.

    There was a bus stop that all the secondary kids would be waiting at as we went passed. If it had rained, there would be a huge puddle on the road right at the bus stop. There was loads of room to not go through the puddle but guaranteed, my dad would get that glint in his eye and plough right through the puddle! Soaked all the schoolkids standing there. Every bloody time he would do it!

    Suffice to say, those secondary school kids had my card marked. So, I chose to go to a different secondary school out of the area.

    I love my dad ;)



    I think c*nt is a far more accurate term.

    If there was a virtual knee to the nuts..... You'd be virtually keeling over in pain right now

    I remember when I was a young child we used to have a Parent's race (mostly Dad's) over 100m on our school sports day. Dad never used to go because he was usually working away, one year he was home for it so I begged him to go and like a pure trooper he stepped up for the Parent's race only to come stone last - he wasn't asked to come again :o

    Well it was a c*nthish thing to do even if ye did get a laugh...
    You could get away with it in those days though, try doing that now & someone would have you reported.

    I wouldn't be embarrassed. I'd abhor my dad if he did that.

    Would he like if someone did that to his kids?

    My stepdad bought a bbq a few years ago and thought he was gods gift. He came up to my friends one day and said 'did he tell you how many bbqs weve had? 5 or 6!!' like it should be one the six one.

    Saying that my now girlfriend was there so maybe he had it right. Chicks love guys whos dads bbq.

    You know what, bowing out of this thread. Lighthearted and exaggerated story from me and my dad isn't and does not deserve to be called a ****.

    Your dad would do that to kids :mad: Lovely...

    I can't stand when people do that, It happened to me and my son when he was a baby in a buggy and the two of us were soaked to the bone and full of mud. I was looking out for that car for a long time after, probably just as well I never did spot it, would of turned into a crazy lady :eek:
