Daddy's Ten Rules
 
What with Father's Day being recently celebrated, I thought I'd copy this from the "Teamhouse" page:

Quote:

Daddy's Ten Rules for Dating

1. If you pull into my driveway and honk, you'd better be delivering a
package, because you're sure as hell not picking anything up.


2. You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance at her,so
long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your
eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.


3. I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to
wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their
hips. Don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are
complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open minded about this issue,
so I propose this com-promise: You may come to the door with your underwear
showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object.However, in
order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the
course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and
fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.


4. I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without
utilizing a "barrier method" of some kind can kill you. Let me elaborate,
when it comes to sex, I am the barrier, and I will
kill you.


5. It is usually understood that in order for us to get to know each other,
we should talk about sports, politics, and other issues of the day. Do not
do this. The only information I require from you is an indication of when
you expect to have my daughter safely back at my house, and the only word I
need from you on this subject is: "early".


6. I have no doubt you are a popular fellow, with many opportunities to
date other girls. This is fine with me as long as it is okay with my
daughter. Otherwise, once you have gone out with my little girl, you will
continue to date no one but her until she is finished with you. If you make
her cry, I will make you realize that which goes around, comes around.


7. As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to appear,
and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget. If you want to be on
time for the movie, you should not be dating. My daughter is putting on her
makeup, a process that can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge.
Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like
changing the oil in my car?


8. The following places are not appropriate for a date with my
daughter: Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a
wooden stool. Places where there is darkness. Places where the ambient
temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter into wear shorts, tank
tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a
goose down parka -- zipped up to her throat. Movies with a strong romantic
or sexual theme are to be avoided. Movies which feature
chainsaws are okay. Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes are better.


9. Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a potbellied, balding,
dimwitted has-been. But on issues relating to my daughter, I am the
all-knowing merciless God of your universe. If I ask you where you are
going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and five acres
behind the house. Do not
trifle with me.


10. Be afraid. Be very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake the
sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming in over a rice paddy.
When my Agent Orange starts acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell
me to clean the guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home. As soon
as you pull into the driveway, you should exit the car with both hands in
plan sight. Speak the perimeter password, announce in a clear voice that
you have brought my daughter home safely and early, then return to your
car -- there is no need for you to come inside. The camouflaged face at the
window is mine.

I have seen it before with one more added to it:

11. If for any reason you make my daughter cry. I will make you cry.

While working as a construction superintendent, building elementary schools...this was a quick way to get your ass fired!

I, too, am thankful to have sons. The parents of my nieces will all be given copies, however. I have also given my older son a copy and assured him there is a Dad behind every door and a shotgun being cleaned in every living room. :eek: :D

The greatest thing about working construction, IMO, is that you can go back years later, see what you helped build, and see that it is still there.

Having a daughter is gods revenge on dads for being teenage boys at one time in their life.

Glad I got boys. My son gets to worry about the grand daughter.

My son just turned 14. I'm printing a copy of that for him now.

Honestly, it's all about respect. I pray that I have raised him well. So far, that appears to be the case. :)

Guy! That's Fantastic!!! Small problem here, your ruining my image of SF guys, I thought all you did was break stuff.

Luckily I never had to invoke the rules. My daughter, 27 now, was the youngest. All three were in HS together and her two older brothers were her protectors. The poor girl had no real boy friends in HS -- everyone was afraid of her brothers. She had what I thought was an attractive dress for the prom and when my sons saw it they said: "OH NO!! Tou aren't wearing that outside of the house." I actually had to intervene.

She is now engaged to a zoomie, of all things.:p

I have two boys and a daughter for which I am very greatful. I established only two rules for marrying my daughter which I put into effect the day she brought that scum sucking snow pimp home to meet the parents. The first rule was easy, he had to ask for her hand in marriage. The second rule was also easy and was relayed to him when he summoned up the guts to seek our blessing for marriage. It was one simple, well meaning, and heartfelt statement: "My daughter is my daughter no matter what name she adopts and if you do anything to hurt her I will reach down your throat and rip out your liver".

QRQ 30 - Thanks for posting that !!
Brought back memories of my step-father. In the days before motion detectors in the driveway, it was amazing how fast he turned on the driveway floodlights every time I was brought home from a date. Sweet good-night kisses ? Forget it ! I am surprised my dates still had transmissions left - they all seemed to throw it into reverse before the wheels stopped forward motion in the driveway !!


TS - My daughter turned 18 in May. I would love to have a conversation with you in 15 years when your girls turn 18. Actually, let's talk during that 14 - 15 year old age range ! LOL (Before I was married, I worked at a residential treatment center for 'problem' girls. After I married and became pregnant, I had a hard time agreeing on a girl's name for the baby. All the names my husband liked reminded me of 'problem girls' at the center !).

I agree! History shows that whenever SF is used well, success follows.

I tried to kick my 18y/o daughters' boyfriend in the face!

I go to pick her up XMAS eve at her boyfriends' place, walk in the house and my daughter introduces us...this lil MFer is sitting on the couch with his pants hanging off his ass, watching TV and says to me...

"YO, YO...what's up bro"!

By the time I crossed the living room, my right foot was in the air heading for his head/face. My EX and daughter grabbed me just before the point of impact...throwing me off balance. So I missed contact...DAMN!

My pistol comes tumbling out on to the floor. That is one reason you will never see me with out a belt on!;) Now everyone freezes and are staring at the pistol lying on the floor. I simply pick it up and say to the kid...

"Grown men don't even speak to me that way...I'll be damned to hell, if some punk ass, pants dragging ass kid will"!

Bill Harsey 06-26-2004 09:20

Did this young gentleman get the message?

Guy 06-26-2004 09:46

Pretty much...
 
Almost like when you have a bunch of FOGs' sitting at table talking....I just usually STFU and listen!:D

Remember the movie;

“Meet the Parents”? Robert De Niro and Ben Stiller.
[Plot Outline: Male nurse Greg Focker meets his girlfriend's parents before proposing, but her suspicious father is every date's worst nightmare.]

I didn’t realize it was a comedy.

I’m a man of the nineties, 1890 to be exact. I figure I have 13 years to prepare myself mentally, physically and in procuring the proper armaments. With proper back planning it just might be enough time. My desire is to meet and greet my daughters would-be boyfriends and within minutes instill such an abnormal level of terror that they will require psychological rehabilitation for the rest of their lives.

Guy, great story.

TS

Kyobanim 06-26-2004 09:51

Absolutely. Several things used to work for me depending on what the target audience was. Sitting in plain view cleaning a firearm or sharpening a large knife was effective as was casually walking out to check out the car and providing instructions as necessary on what needed to be corrected before she even got into it. :D

Best job of boyfriend intimidation I ever saw was Remo, for those who know him.

Boyfriend/victim rolled up outside his quarters and tooted the horn for her.

That was the signal to commence what was probably the most terrifying 20 minutes of his life.

I would have paid money to watch what happened.

Sir, would you please share the story?

TS,

My father-in-law used to write said punk's name on shotgun shells. When the punk came over to pick up his daughter first thing he would show the kid was his gun cabinet, with his name written on a shotgun shell.

Ruthless, I like it.

I was thinking more along the lines of revealing to him the satellite photographs of where he currently lives and his signed confession stating that he was the man on the “grassy noll.”

TS

The Reaper 06-26-2004 13:48

Joe:

Better if you knew him.

Black LTC at the time (now a retired BG), 6' 2" 260 or so, former body builder and professional boxer (was still boxing at that time), trained with Bonecrusher Smith.

Hip hop from car stereo heard inside the house anounces arrival, kid blows the horn, daughter comes running downstairs.

Remo sends the daughter back upstairs till he calls for her and goes out to meet the caller.

Saunters out with no shirt and leans heavily on the car by the driver, sitting it down a bit on the springs and asks him to turn his stereo down and if he can be of any assistance.

Kid mumbles that he is there to pick up Remo's daughter.

Remo asks him who he thinks he is, says I don't think so, and explains to him the proper protocol.

Makes the kid drive out of sight and come back to do it properly, by which point he is back in the house waiting.

Kid rings the doorbell, girl comes downstairs again, gets sent back up.

Remo opens the door and explains that she is not quite ready yet, come on in and have a seat.

Kid sits down, starts eyeballing all of the SF memorabilia on the walls, and the boxing trophies.

Remo ignores the kid, and asks me if I know where he can get a 75 round drum for an AK. Five minute gun/shooting/killing conversation ensues, IIRC culminating with some sort of show and tell with the AK, where he explains that there is no paper trail on the weapon, just in case he has to use it locally. Delivers short story about being the leader of a street gang in his home town (which is a little burg in Mississippi which happens to share the name of a large Eastern city, but fails to mention that).

Kid gets asked about whether he has ever killed a man, been in a gang, used drugs or alcohol, etc., answers all in the negative. Asked if he has ever been in trouble, followed by the "where are you planning to take my daughter", "who will be there", "how long you will be", etc.

Gets the answers generally right, so Remo excuses himself goes and checks on daughter, and tells her to come on down in a few minutes.

Sweats the kid for a few more minutes with questions about school, sports, etc., then releases them when the daughter appears with the usual pleasantries, but tapping the guy one the shoulder while his daughter is walking out the front door and giving him a big evil smile and a wink.

I think she was back home before we left.

TR

Smokin Joe 06-26-2004 16:54

Thank you sir, that is great.

I would pay good money to see that.

after their first week of preschool our nanny came home and told me that she thinks one of our daughters had a "boyfriend" already.... an older boy of 4 1/2 who would push her around on a bicycle for two and hold her hand outside at playtime....

I don't think the team sergeant has as much time as he is hoping for but he has artfully avoided any playdates with the little boy over the summer...lol.
