Fashizzle

So one of my dad's favorite songs is I Can Change by John Legend featuring Snoop Dogg. Well for some reason he wanted the lyrics to it and so I told him how he could get them off the internet.


I almost wish that I had not done this because he then read them to me. With the music this song is amazing but with my dad's matter of fact tone the lyrics almost sounded perverce. He asked me what "Tripping off" and "Hizzle" ment. If you want an out of body experiance all you have to do is try to explain those words to your parents. ACK!!!



Since then he will send me e-mails and things using those words. He has even gone as far as found an online slang dictionary that he uses. When he hears one of his students use a word that is hip then the will find out what it means and then try and use it.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. (Most of the time I do both)

Here is the song that started it all

HAHA don't you love it when parents try to be hip and cool in this day and age when they are so old... and should just stick with that! My dad does the same kind of stuff. His favorite is trying to dance like us kids do. The best is usually my brothers and sisters and I will actually make fun of something, and my father will think that it is actually cool. I do this dance move where I move my head side to side... My dad is so impressed because his neck apparently doesn't move like mine. When I came home last he actually begged me to do it just once for him! haha... old people. got to love them.
